Mini Windsock
Total Time 1 to 2 hours Ages school-age

Tether this wee windsock to a chopstick handle, and you can make it fly inside during rainy days.

What you'll need

  • Card stock
  • Scissors
  • Tissue paper
  • Tacky glue/glue stick
  • Embroidery floss
  • Tape
  • Chopstick

How to make it

  1. To make the sock, cut a 2- by 5-inch rectangle and a 4½- by ½-inch strip from card stock.

  2. Cut long fringe into one of the long sides of a 4- by 5-inch piece of tissue paper, leaving about ½ inch uncut, as shown.

  3. Use tacky glue or a glue stick to adhere the uncut border to the edge of the card stock rectangle. Roll and glue the card stock to form a tube.

  4. Create a hanger by gluing the ends of the card stock strip inside the top of the tube. Tie a 7-inchlong piece of embroidery floss into a loop around the hanger. Tape the floss loop to the end of a chopstick.
