Tip of the Week

toilet paper tubes or paper towel tubes
crayons and/or markers
wax paper
rubber bands
Stickers (optional)
something to poke holes in wax paper
Have your kids choose a paper tube (doesnīt matter if itīs long or short). Then they can decorate them to their hearts content, using stickers, crayons or markers. Cut a square of wax paper big enough to cover one end of the tube and using an elastic band, secure the wax paper to the tube. Use a pencil to poke 4 - 6 small holes in the wax paper. Instant musical instruments. The kids (and you) can talk or make noises into the open end of the tube. The sound that comes from the wax paper end is very cool!
