A leaf whistle works the same way that a reed in a claranet or Saxophone works. As air or your breath passes over a tight reed or blade of grass it vibrates. Your vocal chords do the same thing. We used to hold a blade of grass between our thumbs and cupped our hands to form an air chamber. When we held the grass stretched tight between the top and bottom of our thumbs and blew, the blade would vibrate and resound within our hands. It is really loud when done right. Loud enough to make mom yell "Will you cut that out!" It was great.

Leaf Whistling is pretty simple. Just get a leaf and whistle on it!

I'm sorry but that answer above is just plain dumb, and useless. Let's keep this site helpful.

If you look on You Tube you will find some really neat videos of "professional" people playing very recognizable songs.

I also found some information here under: "How does a leaf whistle work?" Also do a Google search and you will find several leads, and I also found this page that might help:

How does a safety whistle work?

A safety whistle works by using the force of air blowing through it to create a high-pitched sound. When you blow into the whistle, the air passes through a small opening and causes a vibrating column of air inside the whistle. This vibration creates a loud, attention-grabbing sound that can travel over long distances to alert others of your location or in an emergency situation.
