Pool Noodle Light Saber and Storm Trooper Balloon Game

Time

Age

Level

Materials

Pool noodle

Knife (A long blade knife works well)

Silver or grey duct tape

Black electrical tape

Coloured electrical tape (if desired)

White balloons

Black sharpie

Method

Cut a pool noodle in half. I used an old bread knife and it worked great.

Cover one end of the noodle with two pieces of silver duct tape to start the handle. Make a t to get the best coverage.

Start wrapping your duct tape around the noodle. Make as many wraps as you need to get the handle to your desired length.

Using the black electrical tape, get creative with light saber designs! If you wish you could also use different colours of electrical tape for this.

Cut a red piece of electrical tape for the switch.

Blow up your white balloons.

Draw on your storm trooper face with the black sharpie. Pick an easy design, the balloons will likely pop at some point in the game!
