We all have memories of playing around with elastic bands; at times being evil and hitting hard at classmates we never liked or sometimes just giving harmless blows to our friends. But, of course these elastic bands can indeed have better use. Studio Argo9, a South Korean concern decided to give both elastic bands and cardboard a new twist, transforming them into elastic guns that act as instruments of interactive learning. The elastic guns come with templates for training and of course you can improve shooting skills and hang around with your friends, having some harmless fun.
The use of cardboard and elastic bands itself speaks about the eco friendliness of the gun. It’s a DIY product that you can also prepare yourself using old cardboard lying at home. For the ones you see in the picture; the guns were crafted using a pizza box made out of recycled cardboard.
Children will surely enjoy playing with these elastic guns, and not only will their activity be restricted to playing, you can teach them the importance of recycling and also give them an opportunity to use their creative abilities for creating similar stuff. Not only guns, you can also try a diverse range of items, including 3D toys made out of recycled cardboard, etc.
