A Sea Sound Picture

Collect together lots of seaside items that can make a sound eg a spade against a bucket, pebbles in a bag, a bouncy beach ball. Ask the children to choose a seaside sound that they can make as part of a seaside sound picture in which they take turns to make sounds and also make sounds at the same time, just like it would be on the beach. Encourage creativity with vocal sounds, found sounds (eg pouring water into a bucket) and body sounds too. Make a recording of the sound picture for the children to listen to.

Here is one we made earlier! We used: walking on gravel, bouncing a ball, pouring water, shaking shells in a bag, picking up and putting down large pebbles, vocal sshhh sounds and blowing sounds for the breeze. Shall I tell you or not? ... We cheated a bit by using a rainstick and the passing car is there because we recorded it outside.
