Recycled Art

This fun binocular craft is perfect for preschoolers and kindergarteners. But older kids would enjoy these as well. They make a great pretend play activity and pair well with many books about adventures such as safaris or searching for gators! They of course are perfect for pairing with any book about birds and bird watching.

Had I thought about it I would have made these with my kindergartner during the lock down when we saw so many different kinds of birds right in our backyard.

While they dry, create your binocular strap. Take a string, yarn or ribbon and tape one end to the end of table or surface and let your little one decorate the string with pony beads or cut paper straws.

Once your rolls are dry glue them together and secure with clothespins.
