how can i make a miniature sailboat using household materials?
My son is 7 years old and in 2nd grade. We are doing a project of making a miniature sailboat and seeing how many pennies it takes to sink it. I would like to know some ideas as what to use to create a miniature sailboat using household items or simple store bought items?
This is an exercise in understanding why things float and imagination..Your son should tell you what he knows about floatation, like styrofoam floats, or an empty soda bottle floats. Let him gather up stuff and see what floats in a bath tub. Then use tape, thread, tape etc to fashion a crude boat……just for fun think catamarans
