Make A Shield
This shield is simple to make from corrugated cardboard and some paint. We
printed out our coat of arms (see the link suggestion below) but you could also
paint your design straight onto the shield.

You will need:
A large piece of cardboard
Corrugated card
Paint
Glue
Paper/pens
Instructions:
Cut out a large shield shape from the large piece of cardboard, using our
photos as a guide. Paint the card either all in one colour or divide it into
four and paint in two different colours. Draw your own ‘Coat of Arms’ onto paper
and color in, or use this website to make your own and print it (we did!):
http://www.vam.ac.uk/vastatic/microsites/british_galleries/
designa/coat_of_arms/coat_of_arms.html.
Cut out the coat of arms and glue it to the centre of the shield.

Turn the shield over. Bend the corrugated card into an arch and glue in to
place.

Leave to dry and then use your shield to defend your Princess!
