Screen Wise Cambridge’s Snow Day Challenge: February 2, 2015

Make something using these items only:

• 5-7 cylindrical household objects like cardboard tubes or water bottles
• 5-7 rubber bands (hair bands are ok), and
• 5-7 crayons or pencils.

Your creation can be a building, a human or animal figure, an abstract sculpture, a machine, a tool, a poem or story, in fact anything at all! Use the above items only. You can use scissors or other tools as long as you don’t add any additional items. i.e., no tape, no glue! (If you absolutely can’t resist using tape or glue, don’t give up—we’re still interested in what you make, but do try the real challenge first).

Post the photos of your finished creations (and a caption or description) to the Screen Wise Cambridge Facebook page or post them as a comment below. (Be sure to say if you have used tape or glue). 

Also post your questions here if you have any. Multigenerational teams are welcome to participate, whether parent-child or not. There are no age restrictions.
