You need approximately 18-20 Popsicle sticks.

Line 10 of them up like this.

For detailed instructions go to the Kiwi Crate page!
After the pirate ships were done, the kids had a blast making people out of the Popsicle sticks and fabric! They have been working on this activity for 2 days now!






I love it when the kids come up with ideas all on their own. Just give them some materials and they are way more creative than I could ever be!




what a super cute project, tricia! that is fun that your kids are so into it - and after they are done making everything, i bet they incorporate the ships and the people into even more creative/imaginative play!
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing the idea - i'm always on the lookout for crafts to do with my nieces!
