How to Make Paper Tunnels For Toddlers
This is by far the easiest activity I have set up, as a former preschool teacher, I have had my fair share of setting up activities. So trust me when I say, it doesn’t get any easier than this!
- Using plain paper, or cardstock
- Find a hard surface to set this activity up (a table, floors, etc.)
- Cut your paper into either a square or a rectangle, whichever you prefer
- With the paper laying flat, fold the edge on both sides about half an inch
- Grab your tape, and tape down the folded edges to the floor or table. Once you’ve taped both sides, you should have a perfectly arched tunnel
* For older toddlers and preschoolers you can have them involved in setting up this activity. You could have them participate in taping down the edges of the paper to form the tunnels.
