A crafty solution for bored kids that costs nothing!

Yesterday, I asked for inspiration for something to do with my kids. ‘Something crafty!’ came the reply. Believe me, my kids don’t need even more lessons in being crafty.

But then @RedTedArt popped into my Twitter box and she suggested making these incredibly easy-peasy watches, fashioned from a cardboard loo roll, a bit of paper and a squidge of glue. And that was that. Even I could manage that.

More to the point, even the kids could. It took my sons and their palĀ  5 minutes from start to finish. After which, it was a case of: ‘Right, Dad. What’s next?’

The step-by-step instructions are over at RedTed’s site here, if you need them.
