Here are some things you can do with conkers:
-
Decorate: You can use conkers as home decor items. You can make autumn wreaths, paint them for Halloween, or use them as Christmas tree decorations.
-
Keep spiders away: Conkers release a chemical that spiders seem to hate. You can place them around the house to keep spiders away.
-
Science experiments: If you throw conkers into a bonfire, theyll explode due to a build-up of steam. If you pierce them, the steam is released more easily.
-
Make crafts: You can make art with conkers and other natural elements, create friendship bracelets, make good luck charms, or even make soap.
-
Play games: You can play boules, an autumnal version of noughts and crosses, or build a tower with conkers.
-
Learn: You can learn about conkers and their history.
These are just a few examples of what you can do with conkers. The possibilities are endless, so get creative and have fun!
