Make homemade rattles and shakers with household items and chug, chug, chug along with your baby to this adorable Kindermusik classic.

Use items around the house to make homemade shakers and rattles, coming up with many varied sounds -- or timbres-- as you can. Child-safe pill bottles, small travel containers, and Tupperware make great shakers, while cereal, dried beans, rice, and popcorn kernels are perfect as fillers. Now make some train sounds as you play along with Little Red Caboose, chugging and choo-ing and shaking and rattling!
