Build one spinning top It's not only creative but it becomes a wonderful opportunity to play with children and spend many moments of pure fun with them. It's incredibly simple to do; all you need is the right tools and a healthy dose of lightheartedness, which is essential when creating something with your own hands and imagination.
- Get some cardboard in various colors and cut out the shapes of a crescent moon and a cloud.
- Glue the cloud to the two ends of the crescent to attach it to the spinning top (a cardboard disk on which we draw the three results) and place a slightly pointed stick in the center to allow it to spin.
- All you have to do is grab the spinning top (use a strip of cardboard that you glue underneath) and guess the score of your favorite team.
And here it is again many other curious ideas:
- It only takes a few minutes and the right materials to build a beautiful, functional spinning top. Get some sheets of paper, a toothpick, tape, and scissors. Cut six 5mm-wide strips of colored paper and join them together with glue or tape to form a single strip of paper. Attach one end of the strip to the toothpick and roll the paper around it. Secure the paper with a glue and then, using a pencil, push the strips upward. The paper top is ready to spin.
- Take a piece of fairly thick cardboard and color it to your liking. Then, poke a hole in the center with a pencil, which also serves as the support for the spinning top.
- Even using semi-rigid cardboard, a few coins, scissors, colored markers, a glass, a pencil, and some glue, you can make a beautiful, working spinning top. The cardboard can be recycled cardboard, such as that from pasta boxes. Using a glass and a pencil, draw a circular shape on the cardboard, which you then cut out with scissors. Then, decorate it with markers, a process that children will enjoy doing with adults. Then, make a cut in the center of the top, large enough to fit a one-cent coin, which is then secured to the bottom of the top with a few drops of glue.
