Space Travel Game

Crafts: A fun game powered by magnets, “Space Travel Game” #shorts #handmadeToys #crafts

Let me introduce a handmade space travel game.

Prepare 10 round magnets, round stickers, straws, and construction paper, and let’s make it together.

For the spaceship, attach a straw to a magnet, stick on a round sticker, and draw a rocket illustration.

Next, create a flight course for the spaceship on a base sheet of construction paper.

Cut black construction paper into circles and glue magnets at the center to make black holes.

Stick several of these black holes along the course, and you’re done.

Pilot the spaceship and try to reach the goal without getting swallowed by the black holes.

Empty Can Tambourine

Let me share an idea for making tambourines out of empty cans and boxes.

What you’ll need: empty cans or boxes from snacks, double-sided tape or glue, parts made from construction paper, and decorative materials.

Have you ever thrown away a round cookie tin or an empty cheese box thinking it might be useful for something? Why not try making a tambourine that’s fun to create and delightful to play, together with your child! The step where you freely stick the parts together is exciting for both kids and adults.

Give it a try!

Decorating tambourines is fun

Let's Play with the Rhythm of Handmade Instruments! Plate Tambourine

Here are some fun ideas for decorating tambourines.

You’ll need two paper plates, straws, scissors, tape, a pen, and masking tape.

Put the cut pieces of straw between the paper plates, press them together, and seal the edges with tape and masking tape—that’s it! Use pens in your favorite colors to draw expressions on the tambourine.

It’s also fun to give the front and back different expressions, like a smiling face on one side and a sleeping face on the other.

The simple method makes it easy for kids to follow, which is part of its charm!
