How to make a car out of recyclable material

Step 1: Get a water bottle, a knife (with parent permission and supervise), a cardboard box, a sheet of paper, a bottle cap, a pair of scissors, and a hot glue gun.
Step 2: With parent supervise cut four holes in the bottle. On one side you should have a hole in the front and back which is exactly the same on the other side.
Step 3: Take the sheet of paper and tightly role the paper in to two small rod shape pieces of paper. Make shore the rods are about three to five inches long. Now put the rods into the holes. These are your axis.
Step 6: Cut out four cardboard wheels with using the bottle cap as a stencil. Then glue the wheels to the axis.
Step 7: Decorate however you want.
Step 8: Now you have a car out of recyclable material ready to go down a ramp or hill.
