  • Craft
  • - MAKE A PIRATE SPYGLASS!

    You will need:
    2 paper towel tubes or two toilet paper tubes.
    Construction paper of any color
    A piece of clear plastic film like plastic wrap
    Scissors
    Glue
    Crayons or markers

    Cut one of the tubes up the side so that it can be flattened out. Color a treasure map on the top!

    For the other tube, cut a square of plastic film to fit over one end of the tube. Glue it on the end.

    Cut a piece of construction paper to fit around the tube. Decorate the outside of it. Glue all over the inside of the construction paper and wrap the tube up in it.

    Roll the tube you have cut up the side so it will fit inside the whole tube. The spyglass works by pulling this inside tube in and out, creating the illusion of things getting closer and farther away.
