Sense of Hearing Activity 3: Sounds produced by hitting different materials together

Activity 3: Sounds produced by hitting different materials together

Need to keep your child busy for a while? 
Simply go to your kitchen, get some bowls, spoons and cups of different materials. Give it to your baby and your little one will be busy producing sounds (Noise). 

Introduce the items and the materials they are made of. Encourage the baby to play with different combination to produce different sounds.

Your child will soon realise that by hitting different materials, they will be producing sounds of different pitch. You will be surprised that your little one loves to produce high pitch sounds by hitting metals together. 


Introducing the materials: Plastic, metal, wood.

Encourage the baby to explore on their own. 

Encourage the baby to play with different combination to produce different sounds.

Tips: I have a box of music toys which the baby can play as well to stimulate the sense of hearing.
