A Giant Harmonica

The harmonica is super old, dating back thousands of years in China, making it one of the world’s oldest instruments. But guess what? It didn’t show up in the United States until the early 1800s! When it did, people loved it. It was simple to make, not pricey, and small (usually). Learning to play was a breeze, so folk and blues musicians really took a liking to it.
