Birch Canoe

Supplies needed: Brown construction paper or brown paper from a grocery bag

Crayons, tempera paint, or markers

Scissors

Yarn

Hole punch

Fold the piece of construction paper in half the long way. About a half-inch from the fold line, make another fold. Do this on both sides of the original fold. The paper should now look a bit like a capital "W." The folds will be the bottom of the canoe. Draw a canoe shape on the paper (make sure the folds are on the bottom of the canoe). Cut out the canoe shape and punch a few holes on each end. Using yarn, weave through the holes. Push the folded floor flat so that the canoe sits upright.

Each weekday we will publish an easy craft for kids.
