I love Preschool Crafts that are not only fun to make but, to play with too!!  This Rocketship craft is one of those activities.  The kids had a great time creating their rocketship and even more fun flying it around.  The hardest part was waiting for it to dry so they could play with it.

Supplies:

  • Papertowel roll
  • Cardboard
  • White Paper
  • Construction paper
  • Stickers
  • Ribbon
  • Glue
  • Scissors

Steps:

  1. Put Glue all around paper towel roll
  2. Slowly put white piece of paper around papertowel roll, as you go around attaching it to the glue, tuck the extra paper into either side of the paper towel roll
  3. Add a little glue to either side of the paper towel roll where you tucked in the extra paper
  4. Cut a triangle from the cardboard
  5. Take a piece of construction paper and Glue it to the Cardboard, folding it around it, so that the entire cardboard is covered
  6. Crumple a piece of Black construction paper, making a point on one end, and put in one opening of the paper towel, so that it has a point-for the nose of the rocket ship.
  7. Glue Triangle to paper towel roll
