First of all, I need to find a solid 3D shape with flat sides all the way around to which I can stick flat-sided objects to.
WHAT TYPE OF BOTTLE?
Having looked in my recycle bag, I found a squarish flat-sided orange squash bottle. To adhere to this I had a collection of milk bottle tops, and these would be stuck on fast around it.
CARDBOARD INNER TUBES.
The object that would perfectly pop onto the milk bottle tops is half a cardboard inner tube, from toilet rolls or if you prefer the inner tubes of kitchen towels, (which you can divide into four parts).
LUCKILY!
Coincidently the inner tube opening, that being the circumference is just the right size as the milk bottle top and the tube will pop onto it quite easily.
EASY TO HANDLE!
The tubes are chunky and easy to grip for smaller hands. These will be painted in the same colour as the milk bottle tops.
COLLECT TOPS!
As the milk we drink is red top, that being skimmed milk, green top, being semi-skimmed milk, and some white tops, from juice cartons those are the colours I had collected over time. So I recommend holding on to your milk bottle tops or juice cartons tops as soon as you can for this activity.
PAINT TUBES.
Then eventually you will be matching by painting the tubes, for example, red tubes with red tops, green tubes with green tops, and white tubes with white tops.
