Best Answer

A piccolo is a half sized Flute that plays an octave higher then it's full sized cousin. A Clarinet is a reed instrument that, while also from the woodwind family, plays at a lower range then the flute and is held vertically rather then horizontally.

There are innumerable other differences, but these are the basics.
