Art and Play: Little Explorers



We went exploring at momstown Edmonton this month! And what does every Little Explorer need? Binoculars! So, we began our Little Explorer theme by making binoculars at Art and Play. It’s an easy craft that just takes some supplies you probably have around the house already. Want to make them with your children? Read on to see how we did it!

Each child was given two toilet paper tubes, masking tape, paint, and yarn. The first step was taping the tubes together. Then, it was time to get messy and paint them. It was fun to see how each child choose to paint theirs! Some used just a little paint, and some used much more! Once they dried, we poked holes in the tubes and tied on the yarn so that they could keep them around their necks! It was great seeing the different ways each child painted them, and the children loved playing with them. My son is still playing with his binoculars!
