Fun crafts: a cardboard boat

Other fun craft which adds to the previous proposals, in this case, a cardboard boat. It is very beautiful and is very easy to do. It doesn't take long and, with your help, four or five year olds will have a great time.

You will need thick cardboard packaging, it is not worth a shoe box because it is not thick enough. Acrylic paints, a pair of pencils or eating sticks in the Chinese, a piece of cardboard for the flag, glue and scissors. To make the cofa, where the lookout is placed, we will use a cork and chopsticks.

We cut several pieces of cardboard with the plane of a ship, rectangular, more pointed at one end and more rounded on the other, in a descending size. We also cut two smaller squares, to put on the others.

We paint them to our liking. And then we paste them, the widest one below and the others, in descending order. Once glued we paint the masts and place them by holing the cardboard and sticking them so that they do not fall. We put a painted flag as we want.

We paint the cork and chopsticks as we want and stick the sticks around the cork. We pierce it and place it, reinforcing with glue, on the chosen mast.

This beautiful cardboard boat is a fun craft I encourage you to do with your children.
