Boomwhackers

These brightly colored, tuned percussion tubes are great for teaching students, of any age, about sound. When whacked against your knee or the floor each produces a particular note. The longer the tube, the lower the note. Each tube is color-coded and labeled with its precise note. When the tube is closed at one end with a cap (available with tubes and separately, see below), the note shifts an octave lower. Boomwhackers were invented by Craig Ramsell when he noticed that cardboard tubes from wrapping paper could be used to produce music. These tubes are amazing, loads of fun and very educational. Put a class set together and compose your next science sound lesson!

	Basic Boomwhacker Set These eight labeled tubes produce the C-Major Diatonic Scale.
	Boomwhacker Bass Set The set of seven longer tubes produces the C Major Bass Diatonic Scale.
	Boomwhacker Music Book The songs in this book are all color-coded to match the color of the Boomwhacker that plays the note.
	Octavator End Caps This accessory lowers the pitch one octave. One size fits all Boomwhackers.
