Have you seen the new Q-tips Precision Tips Swabs available? They’re just like those made for babies, but they’re larger. And you can use them for all sorts of things! Q-tips asked me to come up with a list of what things my family would use them for, so here goes:
- Painting – obvious, but a great option! You can also buy those special paint books that include the paint on each page. You swab your Q-tip with water and touch the “paint” to get your color. Then you color away!
- Cleaning Corners – I don’t have to go into that one, do I? We all know about those hard to clean dust bunnies!
- Applying or Removing Makeup – Pretty straightforward, but helpful.
- Geometric Shapes – My son is in the process of creating a large cube. This was his idea and he is having the best time (just use tape!)
- Nail Polish Removal – The tips are perfect for getting in the creases of your nails.
- Making a Frog Baton – My kids want me to buy some gumballs so that we can cut them in half and create a baton for a frog or small animal. We haven’t tried that one yet, but I’m sure we will!
- Arts & Crafts – Dip your Precision Tip in a small cup of glue and it doesn’t get everywhere. Good news for the parents!
