Creation Station

Materials Needed:
Paper towel tubs
Masking tape
Scotch tape
Scissors
Cardboard scraps
Wrapping paper scraps
Pipe cleaners
Stickers
Any small item that would appeal to kids (just about anything)

Skills: Physics, patience, fine motor skills, three dimensional shapes, construction, and creativity
This center is a free form exploration of making a personal creation. There are not limits other than what the tape can actually hold together. This center will be available almost everyday. The only instruction I would give other than safety issues (scissors) is that the creation needs to fit in the children's backpacks to go home.
