Have some fun with your own "Bottle Choir"

Here's what you'll need:

• a variety of different-sized bottles
• a wooden spoon
• a length of wood
• double-sided sticky tape

Here's how you make it:

1.  Fix the bottles to the length of wood securely with the double-sided sticky tape.

2.  Fill each bottle with a different amount of water to produce a pleasing array of different notes.  The more water you add to the botte, the lower note it will produce.

3.  Hit the bottles gently but firmly with the wooden spoon.
