Today we are making comets, with brightly coloured strips of crepe paper. The little monsters just need some help wrapping the chestnut. We don't find that easy either! Soon we can go outside with the comets and that is so much fun. But look out, sometimes it rains comets in the trees! :)))

Twist the strips around under the conker.

Tie a ribbon tightly around the twisted paper.

The comets look great, now we let them fly outside!

Take the round part of the comet in your hand and throw it as far as you can slanted upward into the sky, but watch out for the trees! Have fun!
