[Ages 4 and up] Newspaper Frisbee
![[Ages 4 and up] Newspaper Frisbee](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W01IkYhG8O0/sddefault.jpg)
This is a frisbee you can make with newspaper that you throw far while spinning.
The method is simple: roll a strip of newspaper into a long, thin tube, shape it into a ring, and then cover it by attaching another sheet of newspaper over it.
It’s important to seal only one side of the ring and leave the other side concave; this shape helps it catch the wind well when thrown.
It’s also fun to experiment with factors like the overall lightness and the size of the ring to figure out what makes it fly farther.
Let’s make a horse head out of newspaper!
Here’s a 3D horse craft idea using newspaper! You’ll need three sheets of newspaper, scissors, and cellophane tape.
Use newspaper you have at home to make items that transform you into a horse.
With the three sheets, you’ll create a hat, a horse face, and a horse mane.
There are key points to watch out for in each step, so follow along carefully with the video as you make it.
Once you tape the three parts together, it’s complete.
You can also make reins to expand the ways you can play!
A hula hoop made from newspaper
Here’s how to make a hula hoop out of newspaper.
Gather newspaper and tape, and let’s get started.
Spread out a sheet of newspaper and roll it tightly lengthwise.
Rolling the newspaper firmly will strengthen the base of the hula hoop and make it more durable.
Secure the roll with tape so it doesn’t loosen, and fix it in place.
Connect the rolled newspapers into a circle, and you’re done! Wrapping the finished hula hoop with vinyl tape will make it even stronger, so it lasts longer and is even more fun to play with.
In conclusion
We introduced toys you can make with newspaper.
Newspaper crafts involve a lot of fine motor work and provide great stimulation for the brain.
During the crafting process, there are movements that engage the senses—like tearing and crumpling the paper with your hands, and enjoying the sounds the newspaper makes.
If there are parts that are a bit difficult, please have an adult help out.
Also, be careful with small children, as they may put things in their mouths.
Enjoy your crafting with caution! Once your project is finished, be sure to play with it!
