Aargh matey! Get ready to make a front-of-the-fridge worthy pirate ship! The things you need are probably right in your house.
Here’s what you need:
Two different shades of blue construction paper- one that will look like sky on which to create your project, and one to make a nice ocean wave
Brown construction paper - boat
Popsicle sticks- about 3 per boat for masts
Marshmallows- sliced length wise, for sails – some extras for eating!
Cheerios – to make portholes
Use one blue sheet of construction paper to make your project. Make a simple 1-2 inch ocean/wave from your other color of blue, and glue to bottom of paper. Cut out a simple boat shape from the brown paper, and glue on the wave. With glue, have your kiddie place popsicle masts on the boat. Next, they can place the pre-cut marshmallows, sticky/inside side down as sails. No glue needed, they will stick by themselves. Last, glue Cheerio portholes on the boat, wherever looks good. Don’t forget to eat a few marshmallows and Cheerios along the way. Now you’re done!
