Put the grass lengthwise between your thumbs. • Step 3: Pull the grass taut • Pull the grass taut, so there are no kinks. You should see the edge of the blade centered in a gap between the base of your thumbs and your knuckles. • Step 4: Blow • Purse your lips, put your mouth to your thumbs, and blow. You may have to move your lips or thumbs slightly to make a sound, so keep trying. • Tip • By cupping your hands, you can make the pitch of your whistle higher or lower. • Step 5: Experiment with sounds • Play around with different kinds of grasses and reeds. You can make as many different sounds as there are blades of grass on your lawn. • Did You Know? • A grass whistle isn’t technically a whistle; it’s a reed instrument.
