This Week's DIY project was the "Watch Me Grow" game. We found this project on The Crafty Crow, who linked to El Hada De Papel:
Materials/Supplies Needed
toilet paper tubes (or any paper tube cut to size)
cardboard strips cut to width of flattened toilet paper tube
ruler (with centimeters, if available)
pens, pencils, markers or crayons
die (for playing the game)
Using the ruler, mark each centimeter on the long sides of cardboard strip.
We marked 27 centimeters, but 30 is a nice round number ;-)
(Number the lines on both sides to make addition easier when playing the game.)
Flatten paper tube and draw a person, animal, or any creature that has legs.
Draw legs so they match up with the paper rolls legs, when it is slid onto the cardboard strip.
All Done!

How to modify the game for more advanced math students: You can make this game harder by having the children roll two dice and have them subtract the lowest number rolled from the highest number rolled :)
