Directions:
- First grab your NINE popsicle sticks and glue. Lay SIX popsicle sticks next to each other in a line.
- Grab the remaining THREE popsicle sticks and glue them the opposite direction to create the body of the car.
- Set aside to let it dry completely.
- Once those are dry, have children paint their popsicle stick shape however they like. We did a basic red and yellow.
- Again, set those aside to let them dry completely.
- Now grab your pieces of colored cardstock.
- Cut out eyes {a window shape with black marker dots} and a smile out of the white cardstock.
- Then cut out TWO wheels from the black for each car.
- To finish off the Popsicle Stick Cars, glue the cardstock pieces in place as well as any other embellishments you see fit {think rhinestones, glitter, paper flames etc.}
