With a minimum of effort, you can transform a plain cardboard box into a shiny, flying machine that your child can wear.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Large corrugated cardboard box
Utility knife Metallic spray paint Duct tape Aluminum foil Long paper fastener Plastic wrap | |
| Seasons: Halloween | |
| Materials: cardboard, foil, paints, plastic wrap | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | For the head hole, cut out a rectangle on the top of the box that's big enough for your child's head but not too close to the edges of the box. You should make the opening for the head on the smaller side, to prevent the costume from slipping off your child's shoulders. |
| 2. | To make the airplane costume, paint the entire box with a metallic spray paint so it looks like a flying machine. |
| 3. | For the propellers, cut two strips out of cardboard and cover them with aluminum foil. Fasten the strips to the front of the plane with a long paper fastener and give the propellers a trial spin. |
| 4. | For the windshield, cut a frame out of cardboard the same
width as the box. Tape a piece of plastic wrap inside the frame
to make it look like glass and attach it to the box with duct
tape.
