The Spoon Wind Chime

1Grandpa Teo kept a box of old spoons in the shed. Some were bent, and some had lost their shine. One windy Saturday, Ines asked, "What can we do with all these spoons?"

2Grandpa smiled. "Let's make a wind chime," he said. He used a small drill to make a hole at the end of each spoon. Then Ines tied a string through every hole.

3Next, they tied the strings to a round wooden hoop. The spoons hung down in a ring, close enough to bump into each other. Ines hung the chime on a hook by the back porch.

4At first, nothing happened. The air was calm. Then a breeze swept across the yard. The spoons swayed and tapped together. Ting, ting, tink! Ines clapped. "Our spoons are singing!" she said.
