What you need
- 1 cardboard box
- 4 toilet rolls
- 2 drinking straws
- green craft paper
- blue craft paper
- glue or stickytape
- craft knife
Trim the flaps off your cardboard box. Now cut some battlements into the top of your castle.
Make a flag tower using a half length of straw, a triangular piece of blue craft paper and the toilet roll. Stick the blue triangle to the straw and then stick the straw to the toilet roll. Cut two slits into the bottom of the toilet roll and use them to wedge the flag tower to one of the front corners of the parapet. Make at least one more flag tower, or you could even put one on each corner.
Cut a drawbridge into the front of the castle, leave the bottom edge attached/uncut. Attach some string to the drawbridge and thread it back through the front facade of the castle so you can draw up the drawbridge when enemies approach!
Now cut some windows into the facade.
Make some toilet roll trees: cut a treetop shape out of the green paper, cut two slits into the top of a toilet roll and wedge the treetop into the toilet roll (trunk).
Your castle is now ready for play!
