Used thread spools, What are they good for? |
|
1. My mom used to paint them for Christmas ornaments.
2. Scientists use them for research.
3. I use them to help turn on closet lights
4. Mr. Jinggles learned how to push them
5. I should paint them black and chuck them at conservatives. ( ie, George Allen, R, Virginia, (Just a hairy scary)

1. Do you have children or grandchildren? |
|
String eight or ten of them on yarn. My son LOVED them when he was a baby. He used rattled them, teethe on them, and just carry them around.
They make great toys for little ones.
