I have a big bag of pipe cleaners and looking for (preferably easy!!) craft idea inspirations :-)

Give them to the children with some glue and paper and other creative resources and the inspiration will come from them!!!
Just sit back and watch!

we made stick people out of them (bending them similar way to modelling balloons) and then made them chairs, tables, beds, etc - Amazing how long making them kept them occupied and then they played with them like small world toys after!:clapping:

We've made umbrellas before with half a paper plate, kids decorate the plate then attach pipe cleaner for the handle.

Is it just me who hates pipe cleaners???

My DD loves them and has loads but I think they're just dangerous. Am I just a bit OTT? :blush:

I made a really cool spider recently with huge pipe cleaners and a pom-poms maker and then sowed on two buttons for eyes
