Directions:

1. Loop a rubber band over the thick end of a pair of unbroken disposable chopsticks and secure with tape.
2. Use a sharp knife or box cutter and cut another piece of chopstick longer than a toilet paper roll is wide.(only by an adult)
3. Tape the cut piece to the other end of the rubber band.

How to play:

Hold the chopsticks straight up with one hand and press the toilet paper roll down the middle over the stick. Let go and watch the rabbit jump up.
