The class
Wow, my kids were so excited about this craft that I had to share some these photos with you. They made a Super Jet Rocket Space Car (their title), a London Bus, a Steam Train, and a Racing Car. I think they could have made these all day. Once I modelled how to make the first one, I could happily leave them to get on it with.
Materials per student
- Car, Bus and Train template.
- Scissors
- Glue stick.
- x2 Wheels per vehicle. A toilet roll cut into strips or a strip of craft paper rolled up twice and stapled. Then cut half way through the centre to make a slot that will support the vehicle.
Materials for the class.
- Cover tables with plastic sheets or large bin bags.
- Ink pads.
- Wet wipes - less messy for the school as a whole than having the students running back and forth between the class and bathroom every time they change inkpads.

The lesson
- The children should have no need to leave their seats during the craft.
- Songs: The Ride It Song by The Magic Crayons. Lyrics are Train, Car, Bus, Bicycle, Airplane.
To make- Print the template onto thick A4 paper. When folded in half it should be rigid.
- Colour the Train. We used inkpads. Crayons, glitter, pencils etc are just as suitable.
- Turn over, glue, fold in half.
- Cut out the Train.
- Add 2 wheels.
- As with all crafts, make one yourself first before presenting it to the class.
- Allow time after the craft has been made for the children to play with their new toys.
- Create an exhibition outside the classroom for parents to see.
