How to make a boat out of a water bottle
Making a boat out of a water bottle is a fun and easy project that you can do with just a few materials. Here's how you can make your own water bottle boat:
Materials needed:
A plastic water bottle
A pair of scissors
A ruler
A permanent marker
A piece of paper
Craft glue
A small piece of cloth or paper
Instructions:
Start by removing the label from the water bottle, so that the surface is smooth and free from any adhesive.
Using a permanent marker, draw a line around the bottle where you want to cut it to make the boat's hull. It's best to make the cut around the middle of the bottle, so you have an even amount of bottle on either side.
Cut along the line you drew with a pair of scissors, making sure to keep the cut as straight as possible.
Use a ruler to measure and mark a rectangle on a piece of paper that will be used as the sail. Cut out the rectangle.
Glue the sail to a small piece of cloth or paper and then glue the cloth or paper to the top of a toothpick or small wooden stick. Set aside the sail to dry.
To make the boat's mast, cut a small slit into the top of the bottle, opposite to where the sail will be attached.
Insert the toothpick or small wooden stick with the sail attached into the slit on the top of the bottle, making sure that it stands upright.
Cut a small triangle out of the remaining piece of the water bottle to make a small rudder.
Use craft glue to attach the rudder to the bottom of the boat's hull at the back.
Allow the glue to dry completely before testing your new water bottle boat. Fill a container with water and place the boat in the water. Blow on the sail or use a fan to help propel the boat forward.
That's it! You have now made a simple water bottle boat. Have fun playing with it in the water and experimenting with different ways to make it move.
