There are a variety of sizes, so they fit the different colors. Then I use bulletin board paper to cover them in the color of boomwhacker they will hold. Essentially no cost at all!<br />musick3https://www.blogger.com/profile/16976554119253416674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2730939748391575394.post-65548981573495107832018-02-03T21:45:44.012-06:002018-02-03T21:45:44.012-06:00I use cardboard magazine holders.

I did find that because the longer boomwhackers are rather top heavy, I had to hot glue several of them together so they would remain upright. I have them glued together in 2 sets of 4. I can fit 8 boomwhackers in one box. I also use the Octavator caps on all my boomwhackers. The set that was in my classroom when I arrived was destroyed. With the caps, I teach the kids to put their hands on the stickers, put the black caps on their knees for resting position. When we play, we gently tap the caps on the floor (if the kids slam them, the caps will break!)Dawn Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12252664433789752999noreply@blogger.com
