How to build a cardboard bulldozer

Toy Cardboard Bulldozer

List of materials:

Empty toilet paper roll

Cardboard

Scissors

SelloTape/Hot glue gun

Pencil/Marker

2 Straws

A little cup that is the size of the wheels you want

Newspaper

Method:

Cover the table or whatever you’re using with newspaper so you don’t make a mess.

Get all the materials that have been listed.

Use the cup to draw 4 circles on the cardboard for the wheels.

Cut out the four circles you have drawn.

Put one hole in the middle of each wheel so the straw can go through .

Get your toilet paper roll and poke two holes opposite from each other at the back and front. Make sure this is where you want the wheels to be.

Make the axles using two straws.

Get your axles and put them through the four holes.

Make sure the straws are sticking out a little bit and then cut it.

Attach the glue or sellotape to the back of the wheel.

Hold the wheel in place so it can get stuck.

Use the leftover bit of straws so you can make the shovel.

Glue the leftover bits of straws to the inside of the toilet paper roll just above the axle.

Check if these straws are the same length.

Make the shovel out of the cardboard. Cut the size and the shape of the shovel so it looks like how you want it.

Bend the shovel into a C shape so it can push or lift things out of the  way.

Glue the shovel to the straws using tape or the hot glue gun.

Then you could show people what you built or give it to your little brother or someone to play with.
