Milk Bottle Rackets


Kids will love REUSING empty milk bottles and making them into a racket.
Hours of fun to be had and a great way to demonstrate how everyday items can be recycled and reused. 


Adults will find they are simple and quick to make but will have the children playing for hours.
You can use whatever ball or object you like to pass between friends.

These games are great for improving social connections, physical co-ordination and
hand eye-coordination.

Begin by cutting a section of the bottle, as showen. Be sure to keep the handle of the bottle because this will be an important part for its functionality. 


you can make as many as you have players. 



My husband felt that to improve on the way the ball rolled through the container, it was better if a flap was created at the end. This also allowed the ball to move faster and project further. 


My husband tested this game out in the kitchen. I WON of course!
