Paddle Pop Aeroplane

Great for boys and their toys, making your own is a whole lot more fun.

Material

1 toilet roll
4 paddle pop sticks
1 square piece of paper, coloured if prefer
sticky tape
paint or spray paint (your choice of colour)
scissors

Method

Spray paint your toilet roll and leave to dry. Grab your square piece of paper and cut a line half way down the middle of it, make a cone shape from the paper and sticky tape it together. Sticky tape to the front of the toilet roll to make the nose of the aeroplane.
Using your toilet roll put 2 holes opposite each other at one end and put a paddle pop through each hole (2 paddle pops used to so far) creating wings. (as you can see from above picture.
At the other end of the toilet roll do the same, pierce to holes a bit higher up and put 1 paddle pop through making wings for the back. Also put a hole on top and insert another paddle pop to make the tail fin.
Aeroplane is now ready.

Notes

When you have recycled cardboard you can do just about anything. Like stacks of different aeroplanes, cars, boy toys.

Thanks for sharing this creative project; will have a go as it looks like a lot of fun. Would be cute to personalise the plane with a name and picture on the side.

How great do these look! It seems a little fiddle for little kids to make.

This is really cute. I think my boys would love to have a go at this. Although I can imagine what will happen when they start flying them around the house!
