More TinkerTars for Little Wildcats

Help me give my students more TinkerTars as a new instrument to play! Ukuleles are a little too advanced for K-2, but a TinkerTar only has one string to play on!

My Project

K-2 students are not only developing mentally and emotionally but also physically. This is the time in development when fine motor and gross motor skills see massive improvements.

Ukuleles are a great resource for older students, but what to do for the little guys?

Introducing the TinkerTar! I think this instrument would be a great resource for the music students I work with every week. A TinkerTar only has one string, so the priority can be learning how to hold a stringed instrument and strumming. I’m really excited to introduce these instruments to my students!
