My 3 year olds can get most conventional size pea and cylinder whistles to sing. But the very small (i.e. zipper pull) and very large (lifejacket and storm) are still beyond them. Their biggest problem seems to be the concept of a hard blow to start the whistle, and not covering the fipple with their lips.
