A Nostalgic School Craft

Instructions:

1. Stretch the paper towel over one end of the cardboard tube.

2. Secure it tightly with a rubber band.

3. (Optional) Puncture a small hole near the covered end.

4. Hum into the open end (opposite the paper-covered side).

Important:
You hum—don’t blow! Humming causes the vibration that creates the signature buzzing kazoo sound.
