Toy Maker Materials Sets: Acoustics

Real instruments, real science, built by you.

Discover the science of sound with the Toy Maker Materials Sets Acoustics. This hands-on STEM kit lets children pop out pre-cut pieces and construct four fully working instruments from scratch - a drum, a kazoo, a guitar, and a pan flute, while learning the acoustic principles that make each one produce sound.

This is science you can hear.  Each instrument teaches real concepts in acoustics, from how vibration creates sound in a drum and guitar, to how air columns produce pitch in a pan flute and kazoo. Building and playing the instruments brings these principles to life in a way no textbook can.

Everything is included, so no extra tools are needed. Pre-cut cardboard sheets, a wooden sheet, rubber bands, plastic tubes, plugs, drumsticks, tracing paper, double-sided tape, and a sticker sheet are all provided. Simply pop out the pieces, follow the steps, and build.

A project that becomes a toy. Once built, the instruments actually work, making this as much a creative play set as it is an educational one.
