Minecraft at Katoomba Library

Here are a few of the Minecraft head creations from today's workshop at Katoomba Library. I really love the group photo at the end!

Minecraft heads:
*For these I bought cardboard mail package boxes from Officeworks
*We used coloured paper, scissors and glue-sticks to create the character designs
*I had a Stanley knife to cut square eyeholes for those who wanted them

Diamond swords and pickaxes:
*I printed two sword or pickaxe designs on thin card board
*Children cut the two symmetrical designs out, taped popsicle sticks inside for strength, and then glued the two pieces together. 

Papercraft:

*I printed off a few different paper craft cubes out (chest, dirt/grass block, diamond block) and kids cut and taped (or glued) them together.
