When I was a kid i grew up on a small farm, and we used to blow a conch shell to let everyone know it was meal time.

    Is there a trick to it? I remember trying once as a kid and getting basically nothing.

    It has been a while since I did it regularly, but from what I remember you blow raspberries, without sticking out your tongue. There was a bit of getting your lips in the proper form.

    I used to practice after school while everyone was at work, sometimes I would sit on the living room couch watching after school cartoons and practice the conch during commercials.
