MAKING MARACAS

Here’s how to create some real-life music shakers!

MATERIALS YOU’LL NEED

— An empty plastic bottle (with a secure cap)
— Rice or cereal (for filling)
— Decorative materials (e.g. stickers, paint, coloured tape, etc)

STEPS

1. FILL THE BOTTLE

Fill the plastic bottle about one-third to halfway full with rice or cereal and then seal it with the cap. The amount of filling you use will affect the sound of your maraca, so you can experiment by filling it with different quantities.

2. DECORATE YOUR MARACA

The fun part! Use stickers, paint, coloured tape, ribbon or any other materials you have to make your maraca colourful and unique. Let your creativity run wild!

3. SHAKE AND PLAY

Once your maraca’s been decorated, it’s time to make some noise! Hold the bottle by the cap and shake it to hear the cheerful sounds it makes. You can even put on some music and dance along, trying to match the beat – just like in Samba de Amigo: Party Central!


MARACA FACTS!

Maracas are often used in music from the Caribbean, Central America and South America. Traditionally, they’re made by hollowing out dried gourds (big, hard vegetables that grow on vines) and filling them with beans or beads. Whoa!
