Do you know what I love?? Creating a SIMPLE (and cheap) boredom buster that keeps the kids happily entertained for a long time! This glow in the dark building activity is great if you need something to keep the kids busy on a rainy day, and it only uses a few materials! Dimming the lights while they build works well to soothe and calm kids (and moms) too.
1. Begin by cutting the empty cardboard tube into smaller sections.
2. Use a hole punch to create holes around the top and bottom of each section of cardboard tubing.
3. Invite the kids to build a glowing city!
The kids loved experimenting by connecting the glow in the dark bracelets with one another to form roads, bridges, and antennae on top of buildings! Great imaginative playtime fun!!
