Fold-Out Vehicle Book
Planes, trains, and automobiles! Go on an imaginary journey using your favorite modes of transportation.
1. Think about a trip you would like to take. Is it to a historic site? Where relatives live? A famous place? Explore maps to learn as much as you can about your journey. How will you get there? What will you see? Will you pass mountains, travel oceans? What other countries or states will you cross?
2. With Crayola® Scissors cut large colored construction paper in half lengthwise for the cover of your book. Fold the cover in thirds, to make two flaps covering the middle section.
3. Open the folded cover, turn over, and place on newspaper. Use Crayola Washable Kid's Paint and Paint Brushes to paint pictures of your imaginary journey, transportation, and scenes. Dry.
4. Add background and details with Crayola Colored Pencils.
5. Turn paper over to the blank side, with your pictures facing up on the other side. Cut several sheets of white paper to fit, and glue inside at the top of the middle section of your book with Crayola Glue Sticks.
6. Write a story about your travels. What did you see? What new foods did you try? How many miles did you travel?
