This hose phone is a great upcycling project. With an old water hose and two empty tin cans you already have almost everything you need. Two old hoses or alternatively only hot glue are needed to connect the hose to the cans. Let an adult drill you a large hole in the cans, through which the tube is inserted. A tin can comes to the one end of the hose, the other can to the other end of the tube. Here you will find the step by step guide. Enjoy trying out.

Uses an old garden hose and two tin cans that have a rounded edge and are clean.
Let an adult drill you a large hole through the bottom of the can. Start with a thin drill and enlarge the hole piece by piece to the desired size. This depends on the thickness of your hose and the tube sleeve.
This is how the cans look like with the finished holes.
And here you can see the tube sleeves.
The hose sleeve is inserted from the inside to the outside through the hole and should not slide through the hole.
From the inside, the slurry looks like this.
The hose is plugged onto the piece of tulle that survives to the outside. A tin can is attached to each end of the hose in this way.
With hot glue you could fix the hose additionally.
The hose phone is ready! You can determine the length of the smart yourself.
The voice and eavesdropping tube is ready.
