Talking tape Experiment (Talking Tapes)
Talkie Tape is a plastic strip less than 1/8 inch wide with a thickness 2 or 3 sheets of paper and about 24 inches long. Talk is recorded on one side and easily played by thumbnail.
How it works?
Just attach the pointed end of the Talkie Tape to the article you wish to talk. (I used a balloon and paper) Slide the nail of your thumb down the tape. That's it, that is all there is to it. No player, no batteries, no contraptions, no problems.Try different objects to see which produces a better sound.
It's hard to find these now of days. but here is some where you can buy them.

How is it made

[@KidsFunScience]

Good Morning @parthasarathyvenkatadri, Great question. The Talking Device company that made them, is out of business. I believe they molded the piece of plastic the same way they did for vinyl records. But not completely sure. thanks Ken

I'm 44 when I was about 10 years old a party store around where I live had those attached to balloons that would say happy birthday.

[@KidsFunScience]

That is great. I can not find them anymore, as I used to order them about every couple years. Thanks for sharing. thanks Ken

[@NancyMbWpg]

Hey .. this is so cool Ken ! Now I will have to ask you How many instruments do you play .. haha ? How many finger slides will the talking tape take before it does nothing ? Great video !

[@KidsFunScience]

Lol I don't play any instruments. I use to play Trumpet 40 years ago. Good question, I have had my talking tape for years and 100;s of kids have done them at science night and they still work. The art is getting the speed down how fast your pull your thumb down and the pressure you apply. I give these out to friends on their birthdays. : ) thanks
