The Silver Pan Web Weaver

Steps:

Use markers to draw ten dots around the rim of the pan.
Use a pencil to poke a hole through each dot.
Tie one end of the yarn to the first hole.
Thread the yarn across the pan to another hole.
Continue until the silver web is finished!

Safety Tip:
Poking holes with a pencil requires steady hands. Always supervise your child to prevent any pokes to the skin.

Spoon Glide Seesaw

Steps:

Tape two long cardboard strips side-by-side to make a wide path.
Draw a colorful zigzag line down the middle with markers.
Place a ping pong ball at the start of the path.
Give your child a spoon.
Ask them to hold the cardboard track with both hands.
Tilt the board left and right to roll the ball.
Use the spoon in one hand to keep the ball on the line.

Safety Tip:
Always supervise your child during play to ensure they use the spoon and ball safely.

The Aluminium Pan Sifter Shake

Steps:

Place the Aluminium Foil Pan upside down on a table.
Use a pencil to poke ten holes through the bottom of the pan.
Flip the pan over and set it on top of a large bowl.
Pour a cup of dry rice and a handful of beads into the pan.
Hold the edges of the pan with both hands.
Shake the pan side to side to sift the rice into the bowl.
Use your pinching fingers to pick up the remaining beads!

Safety Tip:
Always supervise children during this activity. The pencil has a sharp point, and the rice and beads are small objects that can be a choking hazard.

The Sticky Landing Fan

Steps:

Place three long strips of masking tape on the floor, sticky side up.
Set a colorful feather on the floor about two feet away from the tape.
Give your child a paper plate to hold with both hands.
Show them how to wave the plate up and down to create wind.
Help them fan the feather toward the sticky tape landing pad.
Watch as the feather flies through the air and sticks to the tape!
Ask your child to use their fingers to peel the feather off and start again.

Safety Tip:
Choking Hazard. Always supervise your child to ensure they do not put feathers or masking tape in their mouth.

The Craft Stick Picture Puzzle

Steps:

Line up five or six craft sticks side-by-side on a flat table.
Place a long strip of masking tape across the back to hold them together.
Flip the sticks over so the tape is on the bottom.
Ask your child to draw a simple picture across all the sticks using markers.
Carefully peel the masking tape off the back.
Mix up the craft sticks so the picture is out of order.
Challenge your child to put the sticks back in the right order to reveal the picture!

Safety Tip:
Supervise your child while they use markers to ensure they stay on the craft sticks. Check the sticks for splinters before starting the activity.
