Here are the requirements: 
You must use at least two items.
You must be able to produce a high and a low sound.
It can be as simple or as complex as you like.
You can use some kind of drum stick or your hands to hit the instrument.
Bear in mind that your percussion instruments will be used later to perform rock-style drum rhythm

Here's a video for inspiration:
