Visit a Magical Kingdom

Click here for the templates to print out onto card (or paper which can then be glued onto card).
You will need:
- Scissors
- Card
- Glue
- Double-sided tape (optional)
- Craft knife
- Push pin and tack
- Pencil
- String or rope
- Darning needle
- Egg box base
Instructions:
Step 1: Cut out the windows and around the door using a craft knife. Make sure you leave the bottom of the door attached.
Step 2: Fold down the door and glue the separate door piece onto the back, to make it double sided.
Step 3: Punch holes in the front of the castle and in the door (use a push pin with a piece of tack behind, and then extend the hole with a pencil).
Cut two pieces of string (or rope) 6 inches long. Thread them through the front of the castle and through the door and knot each end. This will create a drawbridge.
Step 4: Fold the tabs on the front and back of the castle and attach the sides. You can now place the egg box in the back.
Step 5: Set the scene. Will your princesses spend time in their castle or in the grounds, and will they visit their unicorn friend or swan?
Look Like a Beautiful Princess
Your kids will delight in dressing up as royalty whilst they play with their castle. Here are some clever ways to look princess perfect:
- Wear a long floaty tulle skirt. You can either simply tie tulle around your waist, or make a swishy skirt with a ribbon band, click here for details.
- Don a cloak for an aristocratic look. You can either tie a piece of soft fabric, like velvet or tulle, around your neck, or try this easy 30 minute princess cape make.
