Alex had a book talk last week and he chose the Magic Treehouse Book "Viking Ships at Sunrise". His favorite part is when the Vikings arrive in their ships and he at first wanted to make a wooden model of a Viking ship. Since that was more than our time and available materials allowed we did some internet searching and came up with a suitable alternative.
Ben helped him with some of the harder cutting and taping but Alex did most of it himself, including putting the body of the ship together and drawing the outline of the dragon head for the bow!
It is made from all recycled/repurposed materials that we already had in the house.
