Fill your baster bulb with water by putting the open end under a slow running faucet until it reaches the top of the bulb or try to remove the bulb, fill it and replace it. You may have to experiment with both filling techniques to see which one words best for you and your baster. Do not fill the plastic air column of the baster.
Hold your baster upright with the open end of the plastic air column on your lower lip. Extend your upper lip and blow gently across the top of the baster. If yo blow too hard you could begin to feel a little dizzy.
Gently squeeze the bulb of the baster near the bottom to change the level of the water and the pitch of your baster. If you squeeze near the top, you may cause the water to leak from the baster bulb. (If you do get a leaky baster, put some duct tape over the edge of the bulb so that it seals the bulb to the column better.)
Experiment with the baster sounds. Create different sounds by considering:
- Speed: fast, medium, and slow
- Length of the breath: Short quick breaths (staccato notes) or notes that are held out (sustained notes), or connected notes that slide from one to the other (legato) by keeping the breath flowing.
- High sounds ( to represent little creatures like mince)
- Low sounds (to represent big creatures like trolls)
