I need help to create / build stuff with my 11 year old

[Ferris Bueller]

It's her School project for recycling garbage lying around the house that you can turn into something that someone may find useful and want to buy for charity , 

Example.. Pringle tube large and small.. Larger one cut in half joined together with tape or the likes then painted hey presto a desk tidy 

 

Please please kickback any other suggestions as that's all I have. 🤔🤔🤔

Cardboard boxes and bog roll tubes can be made into a castle and after spraying gold paint on said castle you can call it a Xmas castle. I know because I did it in P1

Stock up on the best items at this year’s event. You can then use what you buy in subsequent years as ready made tat without the stress and hassle.

the classic blue Peter episode

There is a site on Instagram called 5min crafts. I assume it’s on FB and other social media sites, YouTube etc.

 

Its excellent for these sort of thing I occasionally do them with my daughter, However both my kids love the site and the videos of things to do.

Do you drink much?  Before minimum pricing, I know someone who could have made a Frosty Jack's cider version of this from what was in their flat.
