Hello friends! Today, we’re going to learn about some cool musical instruments called wind instruments. Are you ready to find out more? These instruments need air to make music. There are two kinds: some are made of wood, and others are made of metal. Let’s explore them together!
The transverse flute is a shiny instrument that can be made of gold or silver. A long time ago, it was made of wood, so it was part of the woodwind family. Want to hear how it sounds? It’s like a gentle breeze!
The clarinet is another woodwind instrument. It’s often used in jazz music, which is a fun and lively type of music. The clarinet has a smooth and sweet sound that many people love.
The trumpet is the smallest of the brass wind instruments. In the old days, people used it in palaces to announce the arrival of kings and queens. It has a bright and cheerful sound. Listen to it go!
The saxophone is a woodwind instrument too. It’s popular in jazz music because of its relaxing and smooth sound. Imagine playing the saxophone and becoming a jazz star!
The trombone is a brass wind instrument with a special slide that moves back and forth to change the notes. It makes a bold and exciting sound. It’s like a musical slide whistle!
The tuba is the biggest of the brass wind instruments, and it has the deepest sound. It’s like a big bear’s growl! Let’s listen to its powerful sound.
Let’s remember the instruments we talked about today: transverse flute, clarinet, trumpet, saxophone, trombone, and tuba. Aren’t they amazing?

Make Your Own Wind Instrument: Gather some simple materials like straws, paper towel rolls, or empty plastic bottles. Try to create your own wind instrument by blowing air through these objects. Experiment with cutting the straws to different lengths or adding holes to see how it changes the sound. Can you make a sound like a flute or a trumpet?
Sound Detective: Go on a sound hunt around your home or school. Listen carefully for different sounds and try to identify if any of them remind you of the wind instruments we learned about. Do you hear a sound like a gentle flute or a bold trombone? Write down or draw what you hear and share it with your friends or family.
Music Match-Up: Listen to a few short clips of music that feature different wind instruments. Try to match the sound you hear with the correct instrument: transverse flute, clarinet, trumpet, saxophone, trombone, or tuba. Discuss with a friend or family member why you think a particular sound belongs to a specific instrument. What makes each instrument’s sound unique?
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:
