Sometimes creativity turns the simplest objects into something magical.

Honoring early learning and the shared commitment of children, teachers, families, and communities while recognizing 100 years of NAEYC and 55 years of Week of the Young Child.🎸✨As part of Michigan AEYC’s WOYC26: Celebrating All Month Long, here’s your activity for April 29: ✨ Use rubber bands to turn a cookie cutter into a tiny guitar!

This hands-on activity supports:
🎵 Exploration of sound and rhythm
🧠 Creativity and problem-solving
💪 Fine motor skills and coordination

Stretch, strum, and listen—children can experiment with different sounds while creating their own mini instruments. 📥 Get the WOYC April Calendar to discover all the ways to try these activities at home, in the classroom, or anywhere young learners can explore and create: 🔗 https://miaeyc.org/membership/week-of-the-young-child/ 📸 Share your mini musicians and tag us—we’d love to hear what you create!
