Funoculars

Gather your family together to make these fun binoculars. Then use your “funoculars” to go creature hunting in your backyard!

You Will Need:

  • Paper towel tube, cut in half
  • 9-by-12-inch sheet of colored paper, cut in half widthwise
  • Safety scissors
  • Tape
  • Craft glue
  • 2 1-by-6-inch black strips and a 3-inch square of black paper
  • Markers and stickers
  • Hole punch
  • 26-inch piece of ribbon or string

What to Do:

  1. Wrap the paper around each tube and tape. Trim the ends. Glue the black strips around the bottom.
  2. With seams facing, tape tubes together at the top and bottom.
  3. Roll the black square to form a 7⁄8-inch (focus) tube and tape. Glue the tube to the top of the funoculars, ½ inch from the edge.
  4. Decorate your funoculars with stickers or markers.
  5. Use the hole punch to make a hole on the outside edge of each tube and attach the ribbon.
Parents: Never leave your child unattended while they’re wearing funoculars around their neck.
