This easy castle craft is not only fun to do, but it provides a
fantastic place to store your pens and pencils and helps you to keep your desk
tidy!
You will need:
4 cardboard tubes
Small box
Grey paint
Black pen
Glue
Cut any flaps off the box. Cut the tubes to size so that they are a couple of
inches taller than the box. Glue one tube into each corner and leave to dry.
Paint the castle with the grey paint, then leave to dry.
With the black pen draw turrets around the top of the castle. Older children
may prefer to cut the turrets out. Draw on windows, doors and stone work.
Now you can store your pens and pencils in the towers and your pencil
sharpeners and erasers (rubbers) in the base of the castle.
