Day 39- Tubes

Reuse empty toilet paper rolls and empty paper towel rolls.

I can not tell you how many of these rolls I have used over the years in my daycare!

These rolls are perfect for art projects, car and train tunnels, marbles, instruments, all kinds of things! If you have kiddos of your own, let your kiddos experiment with them and see what they come up with.

If you don’t have kiddos of your own, think about donating them to a child care center, home daycare, or art center in your community. I know they will use them!

If you are curious about what kinds of projects you can use these rolls for, you can check out my Pinterest™ page at https://www.pinterest.com/dcmom70/preschool/

If you don’t have any places to donate your rolls or any kiddos in the house, please recycle them. At least they will be kept out of the landfill. Happy tubing!
