Foosball... Out of a Shoebox?
All the counselors here at Camp Wannawin saved the boxes from their winter boots so you could transform them into a mini foosball game!
Materials:
• Shoebox
• Four wooden dowels
• Ten clothespins
• Five corks
• White and blue duct tape
• Green paper
• White paint pen
• Ping-Pong ball
• Acryllic paint
• Scissors
• X-Acto Knife
• Glue Gun
Find the center point on the box and sketch out a goal. The smaller the goal, the more challenging it will be to score! Cut out with an X-Acto knife.
First, cover the box with the white tape, then add a row of blue tape on the top edge. This will make your box nice and sturdy.
Cut the green paper to fit inside the bottom of the box. Using a ruler and the white paint pen, draw the goal boxes and the center line. Use a cup to trace the center circle.
Measure out four holes on each side, roughly evenly spaced out. Using the end of a pair of scissors, poke holes in the box and insert the dowels.
Pick your team colors and paint the clothespins. Cut each cork in half, paint on some hair.
Clip the players onto the dowels, then using the glue gun, attach the heads. Find a friend to play you, drop in the ball, and see who can score a gooooooooaaallll!!
