Two pencils are tied together and the strings go up and over the ears (as in pic). Add several pieces of candy on the pencils. Players carefully raise the pencils, by pulling down on the strings. Whoever eats the most candies, wins!

Floating Party Balloons
Line your driveway. Make a path to the party. Or mark them with random numbers throughout the yard and the kids have to run to find them in order. Neato!

Whisper Phone
Check out this great project for a handy parent that wants to make a donation to their child’s classroom!
This is a neat QUIET activity for learning or playing. You only need to whisper into the mouth end to hear in the ear end. This way, many kids can practice reading lessons without disturbing each other.

This would be a great project for a handy parent that wants to make a donation to their child’s classroom!
