Wrap Tubes
Secure one end of paper to the cardboard tube with craft glue, and then roll/wrap the entire tube securing the second end with additional craft glue (Images 1 and 2).


Place Cracker Snap
Place cracker snap inside of tube, securing it in place by tying one end shut with baker's twine (Images 1 and 2).


Fill Crackers
Fill cracker with confetti, candy and small toys. Secure contents by tying the remaining open end with baker's twine.


Pull Ends
When you're ready to use crackers, pull both ends. The loud pop and surprises spilling out will be fun for kids and adults alike.
