Can you please give me a list of creative ideas for using empty tubes from toilet paper rolls in kids' projects? I want five suggestions and a brief explanation of how to do each.

Okay, here are some craft ideas for kids using empty tubes of toilet paper:

1. Binoculars - Hold two tubes parallel and tape them together. You can use decorative duct tape with designs like camo, ducks, or mustaches.
2. Didgeridoo - Tape two or more tubes together into one long tube and blow into one end to make sounds. You can watch videos of people playing Didgeridoos in Australia.
3. Animals - Get four plastic forks and cut them in half. Glue the two halves back together at a 90-degree angle so they look like animal legs with the tines of the fork as claws. Then, glue the forks to the tubes like four limbs. Cut shapes out of paper to make animal faces and tape them to one end of the tube. Do the same with tails and put them on the other end.
4. Ring garlands - Cut the tube into rings with a pair of scissors. Put a cut in one ring so you can put it through another ring like links in a chain. Tape or glue the ring shut and continue until you've used all the rings. Cover it with tissue paper or glitter to give it some color.
5. Vases - Cut a circle out of cardboard and tape it so one end of the tube is covered. Then, cover the tube with clippings from magazines or construction paper. Now you can put paper flowers inside (Note that this vase will not hold water).
