Paul is working on a very special project for the kids, and he had a piece of Quik-Tube left over (you can buy these at places like Lowes).
Looking at this sturdy tube, I knew it must be good for something.
So I asked him not to throw it out.
Then it came to me.
This thing would be just the right size for a Zhu Zhu wheel!
And since we've been doing Valentine's Day crafts, we decided to fit this in.
I cut red construction paper to size, and Pierce got to work with the glue.
Then, remember those homemade stickers we made yesterday?
If not, go read about those first!
Well, Pierce stuck his stickers all over the Zhu Zhu wheel.
And next thing we knew, this guy was rolling all over the house:
I think he likes it!
I'm linking this post with the Valentine's Party at JDaniel4sMom's blog:

Perhaps you need to get a real one?!?!...:)JP
LOVE!!!!!
Cute! We have the "real" wheel but I think it would be funner to watch them roll around the house and bump into things.
what a cute idea!! your kids are adorable!!
I bet that is a riot watching him roll all over the place lol.. Very creative!
Brilliant! I know some Kung Zhu Hamsters about to get rolling here!
What a great idea, you are so creative. And your hamster is so cute, rolling away, happily.--Inger
How cute! Makes me want to get a real hamster! I think the boy is a little young for one though ... someday. In the meantime we have the ZhuZhu's too :)
How cute. Yes, rodents love cardboard - I once had two Hooded rats and they loved it when I gave them small, sturdy cardboard boxes so they could shred them up.
Did you want to enter my Giveaway or did you just leave a comment on my crocheted ornament?
I just love this...how cute!
It looks like a great life...for a hamster! My kids would love one of those.
I love this! And what a great lesson in recycling, and creativity you are teaching your son.
I couldn't help but notice the guinea pig sticker-we have a piggie, and she would love a hamster wheel too (if only to happily munch on) :)
Ha that is so cute! We could try to make one but we don't have any little pets to run in it. :)
Sorry again about your water!
I actually know what a zhu-zhu is. I'm so proud of myself right now. :)
