Birthday Craft Club for an XI year old

Like the other birthday club, this will run for 6 months. 

The first project is building an Eiffel Tower out of cardboard. It took me a day to figure out the design and build it. Then another day to make a new set of parts and write the directions. It took an afternoon for the XI year old to build it. 

These photos show some of the process:

The second project will be building a kaleidoscope. The hardest part of preparing this project was finding reflective enough paper.

The finished product:

The third project will be to make a pocket book using maps.

This sets me up until September. The last 3 projects are in the design phase.

 I am LXIX years old. Figure it out. 

The birthday number for an 11 year old:

In this case, there is trouble with the reverse side because it means 9!
