Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 Toilet paper tube(s)
- Googly eye(s)
- 1 roll Crepe paper streamer white
- Double stick tape
- Scrapbook paper
- Baker’s twine
Instructions
- Add some double-sided tape to one end of your toilet paper roll and cover with crepe paper to seal the tube. Press it down good and tight so your candy doesn’t go rogue later.
- Gather a few small toys and candy pieces to fit in the tube. Don’t pack it too tightly or the prizes won’t fall out easily when the string is pulled.
- Before you close up the other end, stick a little piece of twine or ribbon over the tube end so the kids can pull it. Seal it up with crepe paper. This is how the kids will pull to release their prizes.
- Wrap the crepe paper around the tube until completely covered, securing with double-sided tape. Push a section at the top of the tube apart to create some space for the googly eyes.

Notes
If you can't find crepe streamers, cut strips of white tissue paper.
Want to hang them? Punch holes at the top before filling and thread a ribbon through.
Make sure you write names or color-code the pull tags if you’re making a bunch for a class or party.
Don’t stress if it looks a little messy — mummies are supposed to look like a hot wrapped mess!
