DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Pirate Gift or Treat Bag
Fill with treats to give to the guests after the party or use it
to hold a gift for the birthday boy.
Materials:
 |
something to colour with, |
|
scissors, |
|
glue, |
|
paper |
OPTIONAL: string, wool or ribbon.
| Print out the template of choice. There is a choice between a LARGE
bag and a SMALL bag. Before you mass produce, you might want to make
one of each to see which you prefer.
|
| Cut out the template along the outside lines.
Cut along the dotted lines (this will be the bag's bottom. Younger kids may
need help with this (it can be pre-done prior to colouring). |
|
 |
LARGE BAG:
| You need two large bag templates to make one large bag.
|
| Place both of the cut out templates before you, face up.
|
| Glue the template on the right onto the glue tab of the template on
the left.
|
| You should now have one long piece of paper.
|
| See diagram to the right if you're confused
|
| Continue on as if you were making a small bag (the directions are
the same from here on) |
|
 |
SMALL BAG
| Imagine a line extending up from the dotted lines
you cut. Fold along these imaginary lines, fold the GLUE tab and fold up the tabs
for the bag's bottom
|
| Put glue on the glue tab (or tape) and glue it to
the inside of the bag.
|
| Put glue on the tabs for the bags bottom and
carefully press together.
|
| Attach a piece of string, wool or ribbon to make
a handle (or cut a piece of construction paper for the handle).
OR |
| Crimp the edges of the bag and fold the top over (so it looks like a paper
lunch bag)
|
