A friend and I were talking off line about kids and being home sick and how housebound one begins to feel. I sent her a link to the toymakerToymaker where one can print out some very cute stuff for the little ones. Paper dolls, "puppet theaters" etc. And I thought I would start a list of places to print or instructions for homemade fun.
Here's another one I found.
Homemade Science
Any other favorites?

The kids make puppets and you make the theater. Use a tension rod and put fabric on it. It's better if you make casing first, but you don't have to, you could use safety pins. Put the rod between a doorway.

We have all play instraments. We took cups or paper bowls and plates colored, painted, whatever to them, and then put the two together, stuck beans inside, then stapled/glued it so that the beans shouldnt come out. They love them. You can make a variety of music toys that way.

Hindarochel, that toymaker site looks fun!
And I see from it I can buy Tintin on Amazon. I grew up on Tintin.
