Easy-Float Boat

What You’ll Need:

• a large and a small milk or juice carton
• scissors
• ruler
• masking tape
• permanent or waterproof markers
• glue

How to Make It:

1. Thoroughly wash the inside of two milk or juice cartons of different widths. Cut the larger carton in half the long way. (Discard one half.) Cut the other carton, if necessary, to a height of about 5 inches.

2. Cover the outside of each piece with masking tape (except for the bottom) and decorate with permanent or waterproof markers.

3. To make the cabin, cut out doors and windows on the smaller piece, or draw them on with markers.

4. Glue the bottom of the cabin inside the square end of the larger piece.

5. After the glue dries, float your boat in a pool or bathtub.
