Some of the places that a rain stick have been found are in China but some historians

believe that it was developed as early as 1537 by slaves that were captured in West Africa who then brought them into Central and South America (Scott, 2017). Native Americans in the southwestern USA have also historically used rain sticks (Bingaman, 2017). The rain stick today is used in schools and museums to encourage young children to explore music history of different countries and to build motor skills by creating their own rain sticks (Scott, 2017). They are also used as a percussion instrument in various types of music as well as a relaxing and soothing sound for meditation (Bingaman, 2017).
