  • Mini-cereal box
  • Cereal bar box
  • Silver thread
  • Egg boxes
  • Green felt
  • Kitchen roll

What to do:

Step 1

Tear one of the small sides and one of the long sides off the box, leaving a 3-sided box shape.

Step 2

Roly Mo in the completed library

Draw a wiggly shape along the top and base edges and squiggly archway shapes in the sides. Ask a grown-up to help you cut out the shapes with some safety scissors and remember to cover the surface in newspaper.

Step 3

Paint the two sides blue and then stick on green felt for grass on the base. You could also paint white fluffy clouds with cotton wool balls onto the blue as the sky!

Step 4
