I am always looking for frugal ways to teach my children, especially my smaller children. I went to the Dollar Tree and picked up 3 pool noodles and cut them into chunks and used to as learning instruments.
Here is how we used them:
Used as blocks
Used to make patterns
Lined up by colors in a row
Thread the noodle thru string
Did you see Star Wars Pool Noodle Lightsabers? See how to make one HERE. Stay tuned from more uses for pool noodles coming soon!

ReplyDeleteSo fun! I love this idea, my kids will too. I'm pinning it now, thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteVery creative idea! It looks like they were very occupied with their playing and learning a lot of things!
ReplyDeleteThat is so creative!! I never would have thought to use pool noodles for anything other than in the pool. Fun & educations!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I love this, I'll have to do it with my son!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. I would never know where those "blocks" came from had you not told me!
ReplyDeleteyou always have some of the best ideas, I enjoy seeing what you come up with next!
ReplyDeleteGood ideas! Once you cut the pool noodles, did they shed little pieces everywhere or stay pretty intact?
ReplyDeleteI would never have thought you could do so much with pool noodles but I'm learning so much of late :) x
