HOMEMADE P.E. EQUIPMENTThere's lots of ways that you can make your own P.E. equipment at home. Here's some suggestions:
- Ball - Use a rolled up pair of socks.
- Bat - A large, family sized soda bottle can be used as a mini bat.
- Bowling Pins - Use empty or slightly filled plastic water bottles. Also, 24-32 ounce yogurt and cottage cheese cups make great bowling towers.
- Cone - Fold opposite corners of an 8 1/2 X 10 inch piece of paper inward. Use tape to hold the cone together. Make small folds at the bottom of the cone to keep it upright and level.
- Medium Sized Stacking Cups - Use clean 24-32 ounce yogurt or cottage cheese cups. These make great towers that can be rolled or tossed towards and knocked over from different distances.
- Scoop - You can make a scoop out of a clean milk jug or clean laundry detergent jug. Have an adult cut out the opening side of the jug for you.
- Small Speed Stacking Cups - Use disposable, plastic, picnic cups.
- Targets - Use laundry baskets, boxes, or anything with a hole in the top.
- Wand - An empty paper towel roll makes a great balancing, flipping, rolling tube.
