Science activity book: Amazing Cardboard Tube Science
We have been enjoying Amazing Cardboard Tube Science by Jodi Lyn Wheeler-Toppen at home recently. If your library has it, I highly recommend it. It has a lot of fun things in it that are easy for kids to make on their own, use mostly stuff you already have at home so you don't usually need to source anything special, and are made of recycled and easily disposed of materials (no plastic!).
It's probably best suited to elementary age.
DD5 is home from school today and just spent the morning making a cardboard tube marble run.

That looks terrific. My kiddos would have loved that when they were younger!
