Instruments

Resources Needed:

  • Copy of Psalm 150 on PowerPoint or printed copies for everyone.
  • Creative resources for whatever musical instruments you decide to make.

Overview:

Psalm 150 is about praising God and doing it noisily! One simple way to get people to think about praising God is to read this psalm and announce that you are going to make some musical instruments to praise God with.

Once people have made their musical instruments (see below), read the psalm again and have people join reading at the same time as contributing with their instruments.

There are loads of different musical instruments that can be made really easily by people of all ages. For creative inspiration check out any of the following sites:
