51 Things to Make with Cardboard Tubes

(3) K-3 Step-by-step instructions for crafting items such as birdhouses, animals, and lanterns (Tubes) and finger puppets, masks, and garlands (Cartons) are clearly illustrated on one or two pages each. In addition to each common household base, most involve simple equipment (e.g., scissors, clothespins) and embellishments (googly eyes, tissue paper). Cartons does not specify whether cardboard or Styrofoam is best; neither book suggests adult help. Review covers the following titles: 51 Things to Make with Cardboard Tubes and 51 Things to Make with Egg Cartons.
