A tissue or disposable glove box
Empty toilet paper rolls

Brown paper bags
Wooden clothes pins
Newspaper
Open up the bags and shred the newspaper.

You can hang the bag with the pin on the side of the cage

Toy 3: Paper ghosts
You'll need:
Kitchen towel (paper) or newspaper

Rat safe twine (untreated jute)
Cut the newspaper in half and again down the middle of 2 pages.
Fold each piece of paper in half two times to make a square.
Put some food/treats in the square.
Cut a piece of twine and carefully fold the "ghost", then tie it with the twine.
Use a longer piece of twine to make a hanging ghost.

Toy 4: Egg tray/carton forager

An egg tray/carton
Scissors
Twine
Cut the individual "pieces" of the egg carton and make a hole in the middle of each piece.
Cut twine and knot it at one end.
Thread the egg carton onto the twine in an alternating pattern.
Tie off the other end of the twine with a loop for easy hanging.
Fill it with food and treats.

Toy 5: Plastic roller toy
You'll need:
Clean plastic containers with lids
A soldering iron
I used an old and cheap soldering iron that was laying around.
WARNING: Do not touch the metal part of the soldering iron when it is on and hasn't cooled down yet, because it is extremely hot and you can get burned quite badly.
Burn various sized holes into the plastic containers.
NOTE: Make sure to do this in a well ventilated room!
You can add few or many, big or small holes, but make sure they are big enough for most food and treats to fall out when it is rolled.
Your rats might chew the holes bigger, this is absolutely okay.
Put some food and treats in the containers.
