Zoo from newspaper tubes

Little hands and a child's curious mind will give newspaper pages a new life!
Weaving from newspaper tubes is not much different from traditional weaving with willow. The only difference is that no special tools are required, and the material is... always available. Crafting with newspaper is so simple and fascinating that soon figures of insects, fish, birds, and animals from newspaper tubes will settle in the ark of the young craftsman.
This activity teaches patience and the ability to see things through to the end. The simplest crafts will take about 15–20 minutes, while more complex ones will require more effort.
Moreover, the weaving process allows for creativity, trains fine motor skills, construction abilities, and also promotes a more attentive perspective on the surrounding world and a careful attitude towards it!
