Pipe Cleaner Threading
If you have kids, chances are you most likely have some pipe cleaners somewhere in your house. Here's a fun activity to put them to good use, to keep your kids busy, and to practice those hand-eye coordination skills and fine motor skills!
You will need:
Pipe Cleaners
An Empty Box
A Drill
Instructions:
Get your box and flip it upside down.
Pull out your pipe cleaners and your drill set.
Find a drill bit that is slightly wider than your pipe cleaners.
Use the drill to puncture holes all over the box.
Have your kids thread the pipe cleaners through the holes!
Activity Notes:
If you don't have a drill, use a pen or something to poke the holes instead.
Don't have any pipe cleaners on hand? Try using dried spaghetti, sticks, chopsticks, etc.
