Spin Spin Helicopter
This is something I’d remember my dad making when i was little. My memories are somewhat hazy but i reckon it’s very close to this and you’d also find many related versions out there on the web.
What you need are:
- A4 paper
- crayons/markers
- scissors
Instructions:
- Fold paper into 4 equal parts and cut them (width of A4 now becomes length of every strip). You can make 4 spinnies.
- Fold each strip in its centre and make the necessary cuts. See photo below:
- kiddo can draw/colour/decorate (be mindful that having stickers on the wings may not allow it to spin well) the wings
- Now let kiddo do her workout (she seems happy climbing up and down the chair……)
Do share with me if you remember any ‘traditional’ DIY toys you+your dad/mom played/made when you were little. 🙂
