Reader Art of the Week

Hey readers,

Happy Saturday everyone! Take a look at this terrific telescope craft that Chirp reader Jackie shared with us:

If you want to make your own telescope, Jackie shared everything you need below:

• a paper towel roll
• construction paper
• markers
• plastic wrap
• 2 elastic bands

Then, head off to see to test it out. Ahoy, maties!

Thank you so much for sharing this awesome craft idea with us, Jackie! We can’t wait to make our own.

Readers, would you like to see your stuff on the Chirp blog? Send it to chirpblog@owlkids.com.

Have a great weekend!
