Juice-Can Stilts*
To make stilts, you will need: 2 large juice cans (empty and rinsed out), punch-type can opener, adhesive tape, and sturdy cord.
-
Punch hole on each side of each can (see illustration).
-
Affix small piece of tape to inside corners of each hole. (This will help prevent cord from being severed.)
-
Thread one piece of cord through holes in each can, and form into loops just long enough for child to comfortably hold can to foot (see illustration).
