Now you will never be bored again when you go to a fast food restaurant. . Use your fingers to press on one end of the straw to flatten it - the flatter the better. Cut the flattened end of the straw into a point (see below). Now take a deep breath, put the pointed end of the straw in your mouth and blow hard into the straw.

) Now, gently chew on the straw to soften the tip, and to get the edges to be smooshed together. You would like the two tips to be almost touching each other. Now, take the person who can blow really hard, and have them put the pointy end in their mouth, and blow really hard. If they do it right (it might take some practice), they will get a very loud sound from the flute. Can you cut holes in the straw so that you can play it like a real flute.

. Making a Straw Woodwind Making a Straw Woodwind This activity developed by Dr. Cut out a "v" shape in the flattened end of the straw (see figure). The cut end of the straw acts like the reed attached to many woodwind instruments. With your lips barely touching, blow steadily, gradually increasing your lip pressure.

Then punch a hole in the center of the bottom of the cup. Take one of the four cups and push a soda straw through the hole. Fold the end of the straw, and staple it to the side of the cup across from the hole. Repeat this procedure for another one-hole cup and the second straw. Now slide one cup and straw assembly through two opposite holes in the cup with four holes.
