What a great list – you are right, those TP rolls gather up quickly! My favourite is the “puppets” one – I want to make those straight away!

Perhaps for the paper roll material , for the flute itself , I bet still can modify to a telescope too ! Which I think can be even extend longer, good for the kids who wish to see the stars at night ! haha =) Kids do love these stuff.

I dont think you should use toilet rolls at all,because of the risk of infection.

You can use paper towel rolls instead.
