[★uf Rec] #8 “Balance Board” – A heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat cardboard work! We’ll show you how to make a simple craft that anyone—from kids to seniors—can enjoy as a recreational activity.

A balance board where you place a board on top of a tube and keep stacking boards into a tower, adding balls without knocking it down.

Since it can be made using only cardboard, it’s an easy summer break craft project.

If you make the supporting pillars slightly off-center rather than perfect cylinders, the balance worsens and the difficulty increases, so it still works even if you build it a bit roughly—which is nice.

Once finished, it’s a game that everyone—from children to seniors—can enjoy together, so why not give it a try?

In conclusion

If you try making games and toys with cardboard you have around you, you can discover new ways to play while enjoying the fun of crafting.

It will also deepen communication with family and friends and become a precious memory.

How about creating a game everyone can enjoy and spending some wonderful time together?
