A Canoe. To make the canoe (Fig. 74) the inside portion of the match-box is gummed to a piece of stiff paper or cardboard pointed at each end. Strips of paper gummed to the sides of the box form the seats. The paddle (Fig. 75) is made of a match, to the ends of which paper discs are gummed. To get these circles the children can use farthings and draw round them. The paddle and the seats can be coloured with brown crayons.

A Kayak. For the kayak (Fig. 76) a piece of paper is measured to fit over the box; it is doubled in half and a small hole cut in it, then gummed to the sides of the box.

A Motor-car (Fig. 77). The car consists of a match-box without the cover. The seats are of white paper.

Fold paper into four as in Fig. 78. Cut along e f, and cut off the shaded portions and fold as in Fig. 79. Gum the parts G and M to the side of the box.
