Have a Crafty New Year! Alternative Noise Makers for Kids
Here’s a new year noise maker craft that your kids can create.
Ingredients:
• Film canisters (you remember those, don’t you?) If you don’t have any, you should be able to pick some up at any store that does photo processing.
• Curling ribbon
• Stickers
• Glue
• Glitter
• Un-popped popcorn
Procedure:
Start out with clean and dried film canisters. Put enough popcorn into the canister to fill it about half full.
Parents can poke a hole in the center of the canister lid then the child can thread curling ribbon through the hole, making a large loop with a big knot to keep the ribbon in the canister. Glue the lid on the film canister, and then decorate it with glitter, stickers, or whatever else craft materials you have on hand.
When the huge ball drops on New Year’s Eve, you and your family will be ready to make noise while you ring in the New Year!
