Paper Pirate Ship Craft
Supplies needed:
- Pirate Ship Template
- Cardstock – brown, black, white, light blue, and colors for the sails
- Colorful marker pens
- Scissors
- Glue stick
Begin by printing the pirate ship template.
Cut out the pieces of the template, trace onto the colors for the ship, and cut out.
Use a brown marker pen to draw horizontal lines on the ship’s body. Then use a blue marker pen to draw the details on the circular windows for the ship.
Glue the circular windows in the middle of the ship’s body. Try to keep an equal distance between the windows.
Then take the skull and glue it in the middle of the black flag.
Glue the sail and the black flag on the brown paper strips.
First glue the sail on one corner of the ship,
Then glue the black flag on the opposite side from the sail. Finish by gluing the anchor on the ship.
The only caveat is that now you have to talk like a pirate for the rest of the day. Arrrr! Be sure to check out more of our summer crafts at Our Kid Things!
