Teach, Learn, Share

you can make a whistle from a hydrangia leaf by tearing off a piece of it and then tearing that lengthwise so that one edge has a thin membrane attached. place the piece of leaf on top of your tongue with the membrane at the front and make a "sss" sound. it will come out as a whistle.
