How Do You Make A Mobile From Natural Materials?
Making a mobile from natural materials increases appreciation for nature, but it also helps children experiment with balance. A variety of materials can be used in this easy-to-do craft project. Start by collecting a variety of items to be used on your mobile. These should be of varying weights and sizes. Not all of them will be used on one mobile. However, you’ll need lots of extras so you can easily make exchanges as you work on balance.Suggested materials: small twigs, small rocks and pebbles, seed pods, seashells, dried leaves, pine cones, small gourds Choose the first item you wish to use for your mobile. Wrap a brown pipe cleaner around the item. Wrap it around a second time making a loop at the top of the item. Then continue wrapping it around until the pipe cleaner is completely wound around the object. Cut a 12-inch piece of cord. Tie the cord to the loop on your nature object. Tie the other end of the cord to the end of one of the twigs. Attach another object in the same way
