Make a Homemade Bean Bag

Old sock and dried beans to
create this fun tossing toy

Kids love making something they can later play with. Bean bags are great for tossing games to build coordination. But be careful to secure socks tightly and avoid overzealous bag tossers - or you're liable to spill the beans!
 
Materials Needed:
Sock
Dried beans
Piece of twine or yarn
Scissors
Glue
Fabric scraps

 Directions:
1. Fill half of the sock with beans.
2. Secure end of sock with yarn or twine. Tie several times for additional strength.
3. Decorate outside of the bean bag by cutting shapes from fabric and securing to the sock with glue.
4.Allow to dry before tossing.
