This is a toy I learned somewhere as a kid. Now as my son is growing up. I make it for him.

Start by making small diagonal cut on one side of the straw. And keep cutting into a spiral. Cut until about 1 or 2 inches is left intact of the straw. Now the straw will be wobbly. You are done!
How to Play

Just keep the straw in your mouth and blow hard. The cut end will jiggle and dance.
Other options. You can use a blown up balloon as a air port and stick the straw in it. It works.
