Ring Toss

(adult supervision needed)

All you need is:

  • Empty kitchen rolls
  • Empty toilet rolls
  • Paper Plates
  • Celloptape, blue tac/PVA
  • Decorations/crafting material
  • Empty box

Method

Take the empty box and cut one of the sides out. Place the side flat on the table, this will be used as the base, place 4 cuts in the bottom of the rolls so they can flare out enough to be glued to the cardboard base.  

Decorate all elements, once dry stick to the base. Add numbers to each roll so when you throw the plate you can add your points up!

Take the paperplates and cute the middle out, wide enough to fit the rolls through. (Tip if you don’t have paper plates use the remains of the box)

Head to the garden and get throwing!

We would love to see your creations

Why not share them with us on social media? Or why not tell us your suggestions?
