Our boat was inspired from Green Kid Crafts.
Here is what we used:
2 - 2 liter bottles with caps
craft foam
Popsicle stick
cardboard (we used the top off of our pizza box from lunch)
a small piece of an egg carton
What you do:
Hot glue your 2 bottles together side by side
Cut a piece of cardboard to make a deck
I cut 2 egg sections off of an egg carton and attached to the top of the deck
Cut a Sail from your craft foam (your child could decorate the sail) we didn't.
Glue the sail to your Popsicle stick. Stick the Popsicle stick through the egg carton .
Now you are ready to float your boat. Remember to have fun and take pictures!
