Cardboard Ship

Have you got a few boxes you would like to recycle? Here is a pretty simple idea that you could get your whole class involved in making, decorating and of course playing in.

I used two TV boxes, some scrap boxes and some cable ties.

We assembled it inside the classroom to make a very exciting writing and drawing area. We added drawing materials in buckets, towels to lie on and assorted paper and card.

We painted flags for the class ship.

After a few weeks I think the ship will sail to another area of the classroom. I will let the children decide where it sails to and then as a class we will add new materials. It could be fun to be the 'block ship' or the 'puzzle ship'.

I'm sure it will probably end up outside eventually.

Until next time..
