We went on with the story of Megan, who is on a journey and she gets better and better at something with each actuation of the journey.
This makes us solve problems and create things.
For example a convertible matchbox car. Literally.



This is how to make a matchbox car, that is a car out of a matchbox.

You will need


  • a matchbox
  • coloured paper
  • cardboard
  • scissors
  • a knife
  • a marker
  • glue


Step 1
Take an empty matchbox. 
Step 2
Spread glue all over the box. Cover it with coloured paper and then another layer, but make sure that you don't cover the sides.
Step 3
Cut a gate shape on the top of it so that there is space for your people to sit in. 
For the windshield, fold one of those wings facing up, the other one down.
Step 4 
Cut the  wheels out of cardboard and stick them on the car with glue.

Tip: You could draw a little windshield and some other things on it with markers.




We also had to design and make the scenes.
We described the character and the background of the Pumpkin Sisters.


Somehow, entirely out of context a magic trick came up at the very end of the lesson, involving tying a knot. Not that knot!
