1 String: This is correct. String instruments are instruments with (four) strings like the violin or viola. The strings vibrate and produce sound!
1 Brass: This isn't the best choice here!
1 Wind: This isn't the best choice here!
1 Percussion: This isn't the best choice here!
2 cello: This is correct. The term "cello" is short for violoncello. The cello belongs to the violin family, it plays the lowest part in a string quartet. When played, the cello rests vertically on the floor, placed between the player's knees. Note, we pronounce the "c" of "cello" like the "ch" of "church" - c(h)ello!
2 oboe: Oops! The oboe doesn't belong to the string family, I'm afraid!
2 drum: Oops! The drum doesn't belong to the string family, I'm afraid!
3 Wind: This is correct. Wind instruments produce sound that is activated by players' "wind" or breath. The full name is "woodwind instruments". The clarinet and flute are examples of wind instruments.
3 Brass: Sorry, you've hit a wrong note here!
3 String: Sorry, you've hit a wrong note here!
3 Percussion: Sorry, you've hit a wrong note here!

4 cello: The cello isn't a wind instrument!
4 drum: The drum isn't a wind instrument!
5 Brass: Brass instruments are traditionally made of brass (a shiny metal). Sound is produced by blowing into a mouthpiece. Unlike wind instruments, sound is not produced by making a reed vibrate, but by making a column of air vibrate. French horns, trumpets and trombones are all brass instruments.
5 String: Sorry, this is incorrect!
5 Wind: Sorry, this is incorrect!

2 BEAT: Sorry, we do not "beat our fingers".
2 BLOW: "Blowing" involves the mouth. Other parts of the body, like the fingers or legs, cannot "blow".

3 TAP: "To tap one's foot" is to move one's foot rhythmically to music, usually following the beat or tempo. Example: I can't help TAPPING MY FOOT to samba music! If you "tap your foot" to something, it generally means that you like the music.
3 CLICK: "Clicking" is associated with the fingers, we cannot "click our feet".
3 BEAT: We don't usually say "beat our feet". It's just wrong!
3 BLOW: "Blowing" is forcing air through the lips. We only "blow" feet if someone's shoes are on fire!
3 HUM: "humming" is a sound produced by the mouth. It is impossible "to hum your feet"!
4 BLOWING: "To blow" is to put one's lips into a circle and force air through them. Example: Xavier BLEW on his soup because it was too hot! "Blowing" is the action that makes wind instruments (like flutes) produce sound. A "horn" is a type of brass instrument.
4 CLICKING: "To click" is to produce a percussive sound with your fingers. We use our mouth (and breath) to sound a horn!
4 BEATING: "To beat" is to produce a percussive sound, usually with a stick or our hands. We use our mouth (and breath) to sound a horn!

A drum is basically a frame (usually cylindrical) with a membrane (such as an animal skin) stretched over it. You hit it and it makes a noise! "To beat a drum" is a very common combination of words. Example: Most drummers use a stick to BEAT THEIR DRUMS, however, I play the tom-toms, so I BEAT them with my hands!
