#Craft Tutorials
How to make this craft step-by-step:
Step 1
Stack 7 sticks and secure them together using 2 elastic bands placed at the ends.
Make 4 to 5 turns of elastic on each side.
Step 2
Place one stick above and one below the 7 linked sticks while forming a V (see photo on the side).
Secure the two sticks together with an elastic band placed about 2 cm from the ends of the sticks.
Make 4 to 5 rounds with the elastic band.
Step 3
We will now attach the central part of the catapult.
Place an elastic band diagonally as shown in the photo, then make 3 turns with the elastic band.
The elastic band should encircle all the sticks.
Step 4
Repeat the previous step with a second elastic band, changing sides to form a cross at the center of the catapult.
Step 5
Glue a plastic cap to the top of the catapult.
The edge of the cap should be about 1.5 cm from the end of the stick. This will create a very convenient space to operate the catapult with your fingers!
Allow the glue to dry for a few hours before playing with the catapult.
Step 6
Place a pom-pom in the cap, press down with your finger on the top of the catapult, and release to see the projectile fly away!
Activity Idea :
1) Place a large round paper target on the ground and mark the scoring areas (like a dart game, ...)
2) Give 10 pom-poms to each player
3) Set the throwing area a few meters from the target
4) Each player throws a pom-pom using a catapult and records the number of points scored.
5) Total the points accumulated after the 10 throws to determine the winner.
