Kinder JL: The making of our Kaildescope

First we painted the tube
Then we added the sparkles and glitter

A look inside!
Can we see inside?
We realized that we needed to make the eye hole bigger to see inside!

We discovered that if we shine light inside, you can see the reflections a lot better!!


Let me shine my flashlight inside so you can see better!




It's sparkly!!
