Future Phones
Use your imagination to invent a telephone for the future!
1. What do you think telephones of the future will look like? Will they have video or a built-in computer? Think about how much telephones have changed our daily lives.
2. Sketch your future phone design on paper with Crayola® Washable Markers. Use your drawing as a guide to create a phone model.
3. Find materials around the house, such as recycled cardboard tubes and boxes, yarn, and other craft items to create your Future Phone. Connect pieces into your phone's shape with Crayola School Glue. Dry.
4. Cover your work area with newspaper. Color your phone with Crayola Washable Kid's Paint and Paint Brushes. Dry.
5. Decorate your invention with markers.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Crayola Washable Paints—Not for use as body/face paint.
Recycled Cardboard Tubes—Use paper towel tubes, gift-wrap tubes, or long cardboard tubes that can be cut to any length. Health professionals caution against using recycled toilet paper tubes for arts & crafts projects because of the potential fecal contamination.
Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
