A simple project you can do at home with the kids is make your own 3D glasses using plastic from a ziplock bag or packaging tape. Color the lenses with a solid layer of sharpie in blue for one lense and red/pink for the other and attach them to some frames. See how creative you can be with your drawings! My kids really enjoyed the fashion design aspect of the frames 🤓
