Make a windsock

Using cardstock cut and tape it to roughly the size of a toilet paper tube (or use half a sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock for larger windsocks) punch two holes at the top of the windsock tube on opposite sides.

Children may also color the windsock tube with markers or crayons if desired.
