You also need 1 toothpick and any kind of crafting paper or crafting foam that can be found in the school bag stationary of your kids.
Make sure that you are using all the three corks of almost the same width. Attach them to each other with the help of elastic bands on both sides. Then use the crafting paper to make a sail for the cork boat. You can give it a touch of pirates sail by making a little design on that.
You can also make a small flag on the toothpick by using a different color of craft paper. Now, fix your toothpick on the central cork and your DIY pirate boat is ready to float in the water.

A DIY pencil box is another great craft that can be made during these holidays with either empty soda cans or even with the card paper. Make sure to soften the edges of the empty cans as it could hurt the hands while using it.
If you are using a card paper then you can decorate it with gift paper to make it colorful. You can also paint the paper or soda cans with cartoon faces. Kids will love this for sure. This will be the easiest DIY crafts that kids can make and it is useful as well to keep the colors and pencils of your kids.
