Play 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' on a Phone
The musical dial tone sounds can be combined to create a little song. The young child might enjoy doing this, but be careful that a phone call is not being made at the same time!
Steps
- Find a phone that has dial tones.
- Pick the phone up with your left hand, or right if it is more comfortable.
- Use the opposite hand you picked the phone up with to hit the following numbers.
- 6,5,4,5,6,6,6,5,5,5,6,9,9
- 6,5,4,5,6,6,6,6,5,5,6,5,4
Tips
- This can be done on a house phone or a cellular phone. If possible, do not use the click sound.
- Change the two 8's at the end of the first line to two #'s on an iPhone. It sounds better.
Warnings
- Don't go too fast or too slow, timing is important.
- If possible disable the dial out function on the phone before playing as you may accidentally dial a long distance number.
- This can only be done on a touch tone keypad telephone.
Things You'll Need
