By Sherri Osborn, About.com

A&W shares Instructions for making a maraca out of a cardboard toilet tissue roll and rice.

Materials Needed:

  • Cardboard Paper Towel or Toilet Paper Roll
  • Packaging Tape
  • Dried Rice

Instructions:

  1. Take a toilet paper tube and put 1-3 pieces of packaging tape and put it on one end of the tube.

  2. Put a handful of rice in the tube next. (Be generous with the rice because some of it will stick to tape!!!!!)

  3. Put 1-3 pieces of tape on the opposite end of the tube.

  4. Decorate your rice maraca with markers or any thing else.

  5. Now give your Rice-A-Raca a shake and see how it works.
