Now.. onwards and let’s learn how to make a boat with paper plates, a sheet of paper for the sails and a mast from popsicle sticks.

Rocking Paper Plate Boat – Materials

  • per rocking boat, you will need one paper plate
  • paper for the sail (you may want to draw a triangle for the children ahead of time – use any paper – old art projects, construction paper or even origami paper)
  • crafting sticks (you can use coffee stirrers or wooden skewers with the sharp bits cut off)
  • star hole punch (optional)
  • coloring pens

Get all your supplies ready on the crafting table and lets get making!

The construction method really is super easy for these paper boats!

Decorate the folded paper plate

Fold your paper plates in half and decorate.. if the children wish, the “rim” of the paper plate can be the “sea” and the centre of the plate can be the “boat”… but it really doesn’t matter!

It is totally up to them. The kids can also draw little fish “In the sea” or use “fish stickers” to add details (if they wish). You can really make this activity as simple or complicated as you wish.

Cut a paper sail

Cut out your triangular Yacht Sail and again decorate – use pens, paint, tape and hole punches!!!! As much or as little as you like. You can also experiment with color paper, origami paper and construction paper. Just work with what you have!

Attach the paper sale to your boat

Now tape your yacht craft sail to the wooden sticks… you may want to use two – one down the centre of the sail and another along the bottom of the sail to give it a little structure. You can also add a little wimple to your sail if you wish! Totally your call.

Next, you can either tape the “stem” of the sail to the back of your boat.. or you can make a small hole in the paper playe crease, feed the stick through and tape it to the inside of your board.

SNAGGING: If your boat doesn’t stay upright fully, you can add a little glue/ or rolled up tape to the inside of the paper plate halves to keep them together and really turn this into a fabulous rocking paper plate craft for kids!!!

Your Rocking Paper Plate Boat Craft is finished!

The best part about this DIY project is that you only need a few simple craft supplies to put it together. In fact, you probably have everything you need at home right now! What better way to keep your kids entertained when you’re tired of hearing them say I’m bored?

Paper Plate Boat Craft

rocking sailboat craft

You’re going to love the short list of supplies needed to put this easy art project together! And since it’s so easy to make, this beach craft is also easy to customize. Keep scrolling to the bottom of the post to get more ideas for making this project with your kids.

  • Paper plates . We used small 6-inch plates because that’s what we had on hand, but full-sized plates would also work to make your own rocking sailboats!
  • Paint . Have fun picking the colors for your boats! I suggest using acrylic craft paint to paint the paper plates because it has the best color and coverage.
  • Popsicle sticks . You can use plain wooden sticks or colored sticks to create the sails for your boats.
  • Cardstock or construction paper . To make the sails for your rocking boats, you can use any type of paper you want. I used polka dot scrapbook paper to add a fun pattern to our sales. But plain construction paper would also work.

How to Make a Paper Plate Boat

Now that you have all your supplies gathered up, it’s time to get crafty! Have some fun with your kids making your own sailboat craft at home this summer.

rocking sailboat craft

Before you can start putting your paper plate boats together, your kids will need to have some fun painting their paper plates. Make sure to cover your work area well, then let your kids paint their plates whatever color they want their boats to be. You may need to add a second coat to fully cover the plate with paint.

Once the paint on the plates is fully dry, fold each paper plate in half.

rocking sailboat craft

After giving the paint on your paper plate plenty of time to dry, set them aside for a minute while you make the sails. First, cut one triangle out of your cardstock or construction paper for each boat you plan to make.

rocking sailboat craft

Then, glue the triangle sail to one one end of a popsicle stick. Make sure to leave plenty of room at the bottom of the stick to attach it to your boat!

rocking sailboat craft

After that, flip the sale over and glue it to the paper plate. Make sure the round part of the plate is on the bottom of your boat so your sailboats will rock properly.

Once the glue is dry, stand the sailboats up on the round part of the plate and lightly tap one side. The boat will start rocking like it’s floating on the water!

Paper Plate Boat Craft Ideas

See how simple it is to make your own sailboats out of a paper plate? And while these boats might not float in the water, they are pretty fun to play with!

rocking sailboat craft

But my favorite part about making this cute summer art project is giving your kids a chance to customize their craft! Try these ideas as your kids are putting their own boats together to create some adorable art projects while they’re on summer break.

Decorate the boat . While you can make this a super simple craft by letting your kids paint the paper plates one solid color, there’s no reason they can’t get creative! Let them have some fun adding their own decorations by painting designs in the boat, or adding creative elements after the paint is dry. Try decorating your boats with:

  • Markers or crayons

Add decorations to the sails . Another fun way to customize your boats is by adding decorations to your sails. Let your kids draw their own designs or add different craft decorations to the paper to make it their own.

Rocking paper plate ships

rocking paper plate ship craft for kids

How cute are these little rocking paper plate ships? We made these yesterday ahead of our coastal walk that we went on today and both of my two kids are still totally fascinated by them. Every time they walk past they give them a tap and watch them rock for a bit before carrying on. I have to admit they’re probably my favourite craft that we have made recently too! They’re so sweet and easy to make and they only require basic resources too which makes them perfect for crafting at home or in groups. Unfortunately we didn’t get to see any pirate ships today or any boats with yellow and purple sails but we did see some pretty cool other ones!

Heres what we used

  • Paper plate
  • Coloured paper
  • Lollipop stick

How to mAKE OUR ROCKING PAPER PLATE SHIP

rocking sailboat craft

First take your paper plate and fold it in half. Then, take your blue paper and cut it into wavy strips to create your ocean waves. Glue your paper strips across the front half of your paper plate and put it aside to dry.

rocking sailboat craft

Whilst your ocean is drying it’s time to make your ship! Cut out a trapezium shape for the base of your boat and then glue your lollipop to back of it to make the mast. Then cut out two curved triangles to make the ship’s sails and glue them onto the front of your stick.

rocking paper plate ship craft for kids

Finish decorating your ship by adding any decoration such as circle portholes or patterns/designs on the sail. Pop your ship to one side.

rocking sailboat craft

Hopefully by now your paper plate ocean is nearly dry. Take it up again and trim off the loose ends of your paper strips to round off your plate again.

Glue your ship onto the back of your paper plate and leave to dry. Once it’s dry your awesome paper plate ship is finished! Don’t they look great?!

Rocking Boats

For this Rocking Boat Craft I decided to use two simple materials. I used Crafting Paper and Popsicle Sticks and that’s it. Yup you heard me right! this is all you need to create this fun craft. And trust me it will keep your kids busy for a good amount of time. So what you need to do is cut out two circles from blue crafting paper and hold them in half. Now take red and green crafting paper for each respective boat and cutout a trapezoid shape for the boat’s body and yay!!!!! finally geometry comes to use in real life. (I hated math as a kid, like absolutely detested it).

Anyways back to the boat. Now for the mast of the sail I decided to use a small piece of a Popsicle Stick. Don’t worry if you don’t have a Popsicle Stick at home, you can always use a plastic straw or even a tiny strip of cardboard would. Next you need to cut out tiny triangles from yellow crafting paper as the sail of the boats.

Rocking Paper Plate Pirate Boat Craft

Sharing is caring!

Who knew that driving a boat could be so much fun?

We live in the 10,000 lake state but it wasn’t here that we felt the nudge to give boating a try.

Instead, it was miles away from home, on our vacation in Italy.

And what a great experience it was!

So great that our first craft after coming back home had to be about boats.

We started with a sail boat and ended up with this rocking paper plate pirate boat craft.

We love paper plate crafts and use paper plates for every season and holiday crafts. They are great for painting, cutting and turning into so many ideas.

You can easily turn this pirate boat into a regular boat, just replace the pirate sail with a regular sail.

How to make a paper plate pirate boat

Step 1: Start by painting the outside of the paper plate brown.

Step 2: While the paper plate is drying, print out the pirate boat template and cut out 2 rectangle top parts out of yellow cardstock paper, 3 boat windows and one flag out of black cardstock paper. You can cut out the pirate skull yourself with the use of a craft knife or you can use a skull punch .

Step 3: Bend the paper plate in half with the painted side on the outside.

Step 4: Glue the three windows on one yellow rectangle.

Step 5: Glue one yellow rectangle at the top of the paper plate and glue the stick at the back of the yellow part. Glue the other yellow rectangle on the other side.

Step 6: The skull will go on the flag and then the flag on the craft stick.

How to Make a Paper Plate Boat Craft

1. draw a line down the center of the paper plate..

rocking sailboat craft

Half of your paper plate will be the hull of the boat and the other half will be turned into the boats sail.

2. On one side of the plate draw a triangle

I made two sides of the triangle curved. I did this so that it looks like the wind is making the sail billow out. However, if you’re doing this simple craft with young children, like preschoolers or kindergarteners, then just let them make a simple triangle in whichever way works best for them.

3. Cut along the lines.

Use a pair of scissors to cut out the sail and the hull. Cutting is a great way to help young kids develop their fine motor skills (the small muscles in their hands and fingers).

4. Paint the boat.

no alt text

I kept this step simple. But this is a great way to let your kids create without constraint. Let them pick their favorite colors and make patterns across the hull of their ships.

5. Tear your dark blue and white paper into strips.

rocking sailboat craft

I like to tear the paper strips because I like the way they mimic the waves. However you can also cut out the waves instead, if you want to work on fine motor skills with some scissor practice.

6. Glue down the paper strips in alternate colors, but set aside the last piece of blue paper.

rocking sailboat craft

Although I used white and blue strips for the waves. I did this because those were the colors I already had. Try using different shades of blue, or even a little bit of green for a different effect.

Alternatively, you can also experiment with different materials. For example, try using strips of newspaper, paper towels or strips from a tissue paper square instead. Scrunched up blue tissue paper would also add a nice textural element to your ocean.

7. Glue down the semi-circle with the flat side facing upwards.

rocking sailboat craft

8. Glue down the last strip of blue paper, overlapping with the bottom of the boat.

If you don’t want to do steps 6 and 7 in this order, you don’t have to. You can always glue the paper plate hull down last and then paint waves over the bottom with blue paint instead.

9. Glue the jumbo craft stick down the center of the page.

rocking sailboat craft

Make sure that one end of the wooden sticks is underneath the inside of the paper plate halves. This will act as the mast for your paper plate ships.

10. Glue the sail to the top of the popsicle stick.

rocking sailboat craft

I only made one sail for our boats. However, you can also use the same process make two or three smaller sails instead. Just like a schooner which has both back and front sails.

11. As an extra step, use a sharpie to draw on your boat.

rocking sailboat craft

Let your kids decorate their sailboat craft however they like. My little girl decided to draw her family inside, while my son had a great time when he turned his picture into a pirate ship.

You can also add a school of rainbow fish in the deep sea or seagulls flying through the sky. If you have fish stickers on hand, this would be a wonderful way to add some extra detail to your paper boat.

Fresh + Delicious Food

Spring berry moscow mule.

Today, I am serving up a fresh, Spring cocktail with a twist on an old favorite: a Spring Berry Moscow Mule. Muddled berries mixed in a spicy, tangy cocktail? Yes, please!

Spring has arrived in the Golden Isles, bringing with it an abundance of sunshine, lovely gusts of wind and the occasional rain shower. Beach season is on and I can’t think of a better way to celebrate after a tough day by the ocean.

Tasty fresh berries abound, too. So, I created this drink as nod to all things Spring. Bubbly and bright, this tasty beverage is super easy to make, too.

The Spring Berry Moscow Mule starts with muddled berries in a chilled, shiny copper mule mug. You can make it any glass, but these copper mugs are so fun and they keep your drink icy longer. Then, I add ice, lime juice and vodka. I give it a good stir at this point. Finally, I top it all off with ginger beer. Make it even more fun by garnishing your cocktail with fresh berries.

Serve up this refreshing Spring cocktail at your next happy hour! Cheers!

Spring Berry Moscow Mule

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of mixed berries plus some for garnishing
  • 4 oz vodka I love Tito's
  • 2 oz fresh lime juice
  • 8 oz alcoholic ginger beer

Instructions

  • Divide berries among 2 chilled copper mule mugs. Muddle gently.
  • Add ice, vodka and lime juice. Stir
  • Top with ginger beer.
  • Garnish with fresh berries.
