MATERIALS:
-one cereal box -Paints -Paintbrushes -Safety scissors -colorful paper -glue -tin foil -black card stock -tape
Step 1
First, paint your cereal box all over in any color you like. When the paint is completely dry, carefully cut out a square shape from the top of the cereal box. Make sure it’s big enough to fit your teddy bear in.
Step 2
For headlights, cut out two yellow paper circles and paint a black dot on each. Glue these to the front of your car.
Step 3
Now, cut a rectangle out of tin foil to glue on the front of your car in the middle of the headlights.
Step 4
Cut out 4 wheels from black card. You could add a circle of tin foil to each wheel to look like a hubcap! Glue your wheels in place.
Step 5
Cut a steering wheel out of black card stock and tape it so that it pokes out from the middle square section of your car.
Step 6
Finally, snip out a curved piece of black card stock to make the back of the seat for your teddy bear driver! Simply tape it in place and your car is ready.
