Music Instruments Swap - TIME TO SHIP

Don't kill me!! I was laying in bed nursing Holden a few min ago, and started thinking about May Day for some reason. We always go to a Festival of the May, with a May Pole, mummers and everything ... and we always bring instruments to play together. Then I was thinking that I needed to get the kids new instruments because we accidentally left our box of instruments out in the rain and forgot about it a while back and most of them were ruined Then I thought of making instruments ... and now I am posting yet another swap

Here's what I am thinking ... We would keep this one small, capping it at 8 people, so we have to send 9 instruments each. You could make any kind of instrument, as long as it is playable. I am going to make rainsticks. Other ideas would be:
Paper mache maracas
Paper mache egg shakers
Wooden rhythm sticks
Wooden blocks with sandpaper
Wooden sticks with bells
Bell bracelets, bell ankle bracelets
Wooden tone blocks with sticks
Wooden xylophone (for anyone who is good at woodworking!)
etc.

Is anyone interested? This would need to close in April, so that I could get the instruments back to everyone by May Day, so I am thinking a mailing date of Monday, April 10th.

Swappers:
1 - Mom2kbeth - rain sticks
2 - PolkaDot - bell bracelets
3 - Copmom - small drums
4 - Huntersmama - rhythm sticks
5 - Mcmrymoon - mini glockenspiels
6 -

Who else is with me?
