3-D Paper Towel Tube Magnet Tree

Paint an empty paper towel tube brown.
After it is dry, put a crease in the
tube. Put another
crease in the tube about 1" from the first tube making
a flat area.
Now put adhesive
backed magnets on the flat side. Print the
leaf pattern below.
Trace three leaves onto green
construction paper. Cut slits in the leaves as shown by the
dotted lines on the pattern. Stick
the stem part of the leaf into the tube and glue in place.
This could be placed on a refrigerator, file cabinet or magnetic
board.
Children could use
magnetic letters to climb the coconut tree.
It could also be made by the children. Magnet tape could be
put behind fun foam letters
and it could be a take home project.
