Make A Mock Bubble Gum Machine
DIY Craft Project From a Recycled Jar

At home or at school this craft is cool!

Make your very own world globe from recycled items.

Recycle Everyday Objects

Great craft for a school lesson plan, girl scouts, boy scouts or home project,recycle!

How to Make it:

Tools needed for this globe (above)

  • Base (make one from a box or candle type base)
  • Clean Recycled Jar
  • Bubble Gum
  • Your imagination

Directions: We used Elmer's Glitter Glue for this project

  • First make a base. In this case we made a wooden base
  • Paint the base
  • Let it dry!
  • When that's dry: add a clean jar (Upside down)
  • Fill with Bubble gum
  • Done!

Notes:

  • We used a canning jar but any clean recycle jar will do.
  • Keep the box and jar proportionate
  • Make sure the can has NO Sharp edges!
  • You can make a lever and a ramp and get more complicated . But for young kids a box and a jar will do.

Options:

  • Can't make a wooden base? Use a wooden box or make one from a heavy cardboard box...or legos!
