Mister Chris introduces us to Banjo which has a unique and beautiful sound, just like you!

Let’s take a moment to meet a new friend! Mister Chris introduces us to Banjo, a musical instrument that’s made of wood and metal, has a long neck, and five long strings that make a unique and beautiful sound; just like you! This activity invites children to explore sound science, descriptive words, and connecting favorite songs with how an instrument works.
