Lasing toys for kids

Here is an inexpensive way to make lasing toys for the kids. I found these foam shapes a while back at a craft store on clearance for $0.10 a piece. I used my Crop-A-Dile tool to punch the holes in the foam, bought some string and they were ready to go in no time.

I loved lacing cards (sewing cards) as a child. It's nice to see that we can create our own now! By the way, I buy colored laces to do this; makes it easier b/c the end is easier to lace with. Thanks! My grandchildren will love this one! Linda
