Making : School Bus

Anya will start school next year and she’s so excited about it. We’ve been talking about school buses and she asked if we can make one today.

And so we did!

What we used:

> Used milk carton
> A4-sized coloured paper
> Styrofoam (for the wheels)
> Cutter, glue, scotch tape, crayons

We wrapped the coloured paper around the milk carton and taped both ends (as for the top bit - where you pour the milk out - we pushed it in so that it didn’t stick out too much)

I then drew the ‘windows’ and ‘doors’. I cut out four styrofoam circles and Anya coloured them all black.

She then stick the styrofoam wheels on the bus, coloured the door and wrote the bus number (somehow she chose to write the numbers ON the bus top! A really long bus number too!)

And, VOILA! We got ourselves a big yellow school bus! Hehe.

Anya sure was happy with the bus she made today!
