This is a simple confetti popper the kids can make! You probably already have the supplies on hand.
Supplies Needed:
- Toilet paper rolls or paper towel roll cut into 3-4 pieces
- Tissue paper
- Decorative paper: gift wrap, tissue paper, scrapbook paper, or any kind of paper you have
- Balloon
- Confetti or curly ribbon
Instructions:
- Stand the tube on its end, on top of the tissue paper. Draw a circle a little larger than the roll and cut it out. Tape it over the end of the roll.
- Cut a piece of decorative paper the length of the roll, and wide enough to wrap around it. Tape it in place.
- Fill the toilet paper roll with confetti. Any kind will do. You can even make your own by cutting tiny squares out of tissue paper.
- Tie a knot at the end of the balloon, then cut a strip off of the tip of the balloon. Stretch this open end over the open end of the toilet paper roll.
- When ready to use, poke a hole in the tissue paper end of the tube. Pull back on the knotted end of the balloon, and let go. The confetti will pop out!
Macaroni Tips:
Do not overstuff the tissue tube with too much confetti. It works best when lightly filled.
Do not use too big of a balloon. You want to be sure it stretches to go over the end of the tube and that it has a tight fit.
Happy New Year!
