Have you ever wondered how many different ways you can use a pool noodle in your kidmin programs?
This review lists some of the best uses with links to the 'how-to' posts so that you can make them yourself. Check out just some of the projects below that others have come with and you’ll find the that the ideas are only as limited as your imagination. I've tried to group the uses into 5 main areas:

energetic games
design and construction.
Of course, I soon discovered that there are other ideas, too, but many of these related more to life hacks and safety at home.
