Record Bowls

VBSMonday
As a Vacation Bible School teacher, sometimes it is hard to come up with fresh ideas for crafts. So on Mondays I post any craft ideas that I come across that might work. Join in and pass the word! ~ April

This is a great quick craft that will definitely take some adult supervision. I actually did this for VBS as a one night craft. The girls loved it! The record gets very soft and pliable when heated in the oven, and melts into the shape of a "bowl".

You will need:
~ old vinyl records, which can be found at any thrift store pretty cheaply
~ oven - more than one in your church kitchen is great!
~ cookie sheet
~ oven proof bowl

Here are lots of different instructions below, even a video,
or just google "record bowls":

That is so cool! I can think of several of my closest music therapy friends who will be getting those for Christmas this year!
