How to Whistle

If singing is not your biggest strength, try whistling your favorite tunes, songs and melodies. By following the below listed steps you will become an whistler in no time. With a little practice, you learn how to whistle with comfort and ease.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Kazoos
• Breath Fresheners
• Celtic Music For Flute & Whistle CD

1. Purse your lips into a tiny O shape, leaving a small opening for air.

2. Place the tip of your tongue behind your bottom teeth or against your inside bottom gums.

3. Gently expel air through your mouth.

4. Adjust your tongue position and the small O opening formed by your lips until you hear a note.

5. Once you can sound one note, experiment with your tongue position and the strength of your breath to produce different notes.

6. Practice!

Tips & Warnings

• Try not to blow too hard at first; it's much easier to whistle with a small amount of air.
• You may find it easier to produce a strong, pure note if you wet your lips first.
