Materials:
– cardboard cones (or just use toilet roll cores, kitchen roll cores instead)
– scrap of cardboard
– glue gun
– twine (any household string)
– duck tape (any household tape)

Directions:
1. Start by gluing a little cardboard stint between the cones to hold the eyes pieces at the correct distance apart for your child’s eyes.

2. Wrap the ends of the rolls or cones with duck tape. (cut slits in the tape the whole way around the curve and fold the tape over in tabs so it will lie neater, no puckers)

3. Then carefully wiggle the point of the scissors through each side of the binoculars to make the hole for the string.

4. Thread in the cord/twine, knotting to secure on the inside of the cardboard. (Measure to make sure the binoculars are a good length for your child)

5. Use the duck tape to decorate the outside of the binoculars.

6. Look around to see if you can spot a bird or an insect!
