Got budding musicians at home?

Teach your family to turn chaos and noise into music and rhythm by creating a cup concert.

Why a Plastic Cup Concert?

Imagine your kids’ reactions when instead of telling them to quiet down, you encourage them to make lots of noise, to bang on the dishes, to tell the grownups how to do something… This is the beauty and appeal of a cup concert.

It breaks the rules.

It puts kids in control.

It uses something common in an uncommon way.

And it’s a spine-tingling sensory experience.
