Paper Plate Ring Toss Game

Today we made our own take on the traditional ring toss game. Bubble enjoyed playing it and Squeak enjoyed pulling the rings on and off.
This game worked great for Bubble and Squeak who were throwing close range, but if you wanted the rings to be thrown from a decent distance I think the paper plates were not dense/heavy enough. In this case I'd probably either layer and glue several plates together or wrap them in something like string or twine to weight them.

WE USED:

* paper plates
* paint
* scissors
* long cardboard tube (from cling wrap, peper towel etc...)
* sticky tape

Cut the centre from some paper plates to use as your 'rings'.

To make the stand I just cut slits in the bottom of the cardboard tube and flattened the ends, then taped it to the reverse side of a plate so it would stand up.
