Here’s a fun-to-make, fun-to-play marble run you can build with straws.

Gather tapioca (boba) straws, beads, masking tape, and scissors, and let’s get started.

Cut the tip of a tapioca straw at an angle, then tape it to a wall with masking tape, adjusting the angle as you go.

Add guards at the ends of the straws so the rolling beads don’t fall out.

The key is to tweak the angles so the beads roll smoothly.

Once it’s finished, try rolling some beads and play! It could also be fun to turn this into a little science project—prepare beads of different sizes and time how many seconds each one takes to roll through.

Do you have leftover cold packs from buying cakes and other treats sitting in your freezer? Here’s a deodorizing gel pot you can make with those cold packs—perfect as a summer science or craft project for upper elementary students.

Get your materials ready: cold packs, beads, a plastic container, an empty jar, colored markers, a bowl, water, and a stirring stick.

Squeeze the contents of the cold pack into the bowl, add water, and stir until it becomes a gel.

Color the bottom of the plastic container, then add the gelled cold pack and mix to tint it.

Spoon the mixture into the empty jar, add beads or other decorations, and you’re done.

It’s a simple deodorizing pot you can make with everyday items—try creating your own original version!

Well-spinning paper cup top

[Playable Craft] How to Make a Simple, Well-Spinning Top (Paper Cup & Plastic Bottle Cap) [Easy Crafting with Recycled Materials] Fun at Home

This is a spinning top made with a paper cup that spins well and is fun to watch because of its colorful look.

All you need are a paper cup and two plastic bottle caps.

First, cut slits into the paper cup and spread them out like propeller blades, then attach an axle made by combining the two caps.

That’s enough to complete the basic shape, but it’s recommended to decorate the “propellers” with an eye toward how it will look while spinning.

The impression changes depending on whether you spread the propellers before decorating or decorate first and then cut the slits, so try out various patterns.

How to make strawberry jam

Strawberry jam 🍓ParentingChildcareChildcare#HandmadeToys#100-yen-shop#100-yen shop DIY

One charm of strawberry jam is its vivid red color and distinctive translucence; it even seems like its appearance enhances its deliciousness.

This project focuses on that colorful aspect of strawberry jam and aims to cutely recreate the look of jam in a small jar.

Use a tiny jar—like the kind that once held craft parts—and pack it with pieces of clear plastic sheet painted red to resemble strawberry jam.

By decorating the inside of the jar, you can convincingly replicate that unique translucence and shine.

It’s also a great idea to plan jar decorations that highlight the contents inside.

Strawberry roll cake squishy

A cute-looking strawberry roll cake squishy that’s perfect for a school science project.

Start by making the roll cake, then decorate it adorably with pink silicone whip! Experiment with color choices that make it look real and explore differences in texture as your theme.

It’s not only cute to look at, but also super squishy and soothing to the touch.

To make it even cuter, try adding strawberries, cookies, and pink pearls.

Displaying photos or the actual piece will surely convey the fun to anyone who sees it.
