The only difference between singing and humming is really where the air is going. Since you're directing the air through your mouth to form a whistle, this can't be humming, you're actually singing and whistling at the same time.

How do you make different notes when whistling?
Later on, once you're able to whistle, you can use your tongue to change the pitch of the note. The tip will stay on the bottom of your mouth, but by flexing the middle of your tongue slightly and bringing it upward, you'll be able to alter the shape of your mouth chamber, creating higher or lower whistling notes.
Can you sing while whistling?
Anyone can sing in whistle register.
In fact anyone can sing with whistle tone. It just takes some special vocal exercises.
Is there a correlation between whistling and singing?
To give singing a fair chance, we compared it to whistling instead of instruments. Just like singing, whistling makes a continuous range of pitches by passing air over a quivering mass of cells, except that when we whistle, we trade larynx for lips. ... Maybe evolution hasn't had enough time to tune the larynx.
Why can I hum higher than I can sing?
Longer answer: First, humming increases the "internal resonance" your vocal chords produce. This increases your ability to hear yourself while humming, and so if you have any ability to perceive tone, you will also be better able to tune yourself while humming than while singing.
