Our Experience With This Rocket Craft

This rocket craft is a great way to use up to use up cardboard boxes and toilet rolls. Plus, it is a great way to promote pretend play for young children. My little ones had a great time making this and adding so many details with markers. You could also use construction paper to add some more color and more fun!

This space craft will allow your little one to fly out to outer space and around the solar system! Or pretend anyway. You could even add flame cutouts if you want.

This easy craft is one of my favorite craft ideas because it not only allows kids to make fine motor skills, but helps your child get interested in the night scy. This toilet paper roll rocket craft is a great and fun activity.
