Materials
- Cardboard tubes I used toilet paper tubes from the bathroom
- Tissue paper folded over and cut into a rectangle that is about 6 inches by 10 inches
- Ribbon Curling ribbon is fun, but use whatever ribbon you have on hand
- Decorations It's always more fun to see festive party poppers, so use stickers or confetti to decorate them
- Clear tape
- Confetti, candy, tiny toys, and other surprises to go inside the toilet paper tubes
Instructions
- Cut the toilet paper tube in half
- Piece the tube back together
- Fold the tissue paper in half and cut a rectangular piece that is about four inches wider than the tube and tall enough to wrap around the tube
- Slide the toilet paper tube to the center of the tissue paper
- Tape the tissue paper to both halves of the tube
- Roll the tissue paper around the tube
- Squeeze one side of the tissue paper end and tie it up with a ribbon
- Leave the other side open for now
- Fill the tube from the open end with confetti, candy, and prizes
- Tie ribbon around the open end of the tissue paper
- Decorate the party popper with stickers or glue confetti onto the popper
- When you are ready to celebrate, hand them to the kids or kids at heart, and let them pull the poppers apart. It's like a mini pinata in your hands and so much fun.
