Handheld fan made from scrap materials
Combine materials around you to make a handheld fan that creates a fun breeze.
Drill a small hole in a popsicle stick and pass a skewer through the center to form the base for the blades.
Prepare a straw to serve as the shaft, then attach a round-cut piece of cardstock and brightly colored origami paper to complete the blade section.
Make a hole in the center of the shaft as well, assemble everything so it spins, thread it through the straw, and insert it into the handle.
Wrap thread around it, pull, and pass it through a bead—the moment you pull, the blades will spin.
With a bit of ingenuity, you can change the look and the strength of the wind and enjoy the freedom of creativity.
It’s an idea that lets you repurpose scrap materials to create a one-of-a-kind project.
Simple kaleidoscope
Let’s make a kaleidoscope that shows rainbow colors.
Prepare three mirrors for a kaleidoscope and glue them together into a triangular prism with the mirror sides facing inward.
Place this inside a toilet paper tube, and seal one end with black construction paper that you’ve pierced with numerous holes using a pin.
Seal the other end with black construction paper that has a diffraction (rainbow) film attached at the center.
Finally, decorate the outside of the toilet paper tube with masking tape or similar, and you’re done! It’s very easy, so please give it a try.
It’s not a kaleidoscope with changing patterns, but the rainbow colors are truly beautiful.
A toy that uses a lid

Haagen-Dazs is hugely popular for its ice cream.
How about turning the lid—something you’d usually throw away—into a cute science project? In this video, they put sequins inside to make a shaker-style lid, and they also poke in pipe-cleaner flowers to create a little trinket box.
With a bit of creativity, you can use lids from other ice creams to make all kinds of toys.
For example, how about making menko (slap-battle cards)? The weight and thickness seem just right.
With bottle-milk caps, you could make character medals.
If you coat them with gold or silver paper, you’ll get super cool-looking medals.
Handmade toy from a cheese box

Here’s how to make a banana tart toy that can be used both as a trinket box and for pretend play.
All you need is a round empty cheese box and some felt.
First, use a hot glue gun to apply evenly spaced vertical lines around the side of the box lid.
Once dry, attach brown felt with double-sided tape to create the distinctive tart base.
Cover the top’s packaging surface with white felt, then prepare three long, thin strips of white felt and braid them; glue the braid along the edge.
Arrange felt bananas on top, paint the bottom part of the box brown, and you’re done.

Plastic bottles are often used as materials for crafts.
So this time, how about making musical instruments with plastic bottles? Empty bottles can become drums, flutes, or maracas… With a bit of creativity, they can transform into instruments you can actually play! Bottle caps can also be turned into instruments by combining them with other materials, so don’t throw them away—save them.
It’s also a great idea to keep notes on how the sound changes depending on where you make holes and what you put inside.
