Rainy Day Activity: Straw & Pipe Cleaner Construction

I came across this idea recently and decided to use it as a Rainy Day Activity.



All you need are straws and pipe cleaners, or as they are politically correctly known: "chenille stems". Whatever...

Snip the pipe cleaners into 4" pieces and snip the straws in half. Now you are ready to build. The ducklings made crowns, teepees, castles, microphones and even a drink with a straw. When we were done, we pulled everything apart and put the pieces in a large ziplock bag to save for another rainy day.
