Being born in the seventies, I remember making these can telephones in school and at home for playtime with my friends. They are really simple to make and are loads of fun.
The only problem is that many of the young children today have never seen a regular telephone. My two oldest children, born in the nineties used the house phone for years before they got a cell phone, so they knew how to play the can call game. But will the young ones born today know what it is all about? I would love to hear your telephone stories involving your children.
