This is How We Build Musical Instruments Made of Plants

This film stars and is narrated by 2nd, 3rd, and 5th grade children from the Maoz Chaim kibbutz. It follows the young boys as they search for material from which to assemble homemade instruments. The materials are then brought back and the boys build drums, stringed instruments, and flutes while the girls decorate them. Once that is complete the children sing and dance with the instruments.
