It has some pretty awnings,

And a dock, beside a door!

Upon the lake float water toys.

I put moss by the shore

And pebbles: they make splendid rocks!

Some day I’ll find some more!


THE HOUSEBOAT “BOXCRAFT”

Material Required to Make a Houseboat: the covers of two large shoe-boxes, and the lower half of a child’s shoe-box.

Here is a jolly houseboat, the very thing to sail on Silver Paper Lake. Little dolls may spend their vacation upon it. Would you like to make a houseboat to play with? It is not difficult.
