May 29th 2015 - Sir Topham Hat craft
Today lil man came downstairs with 1 of his Thomas Tank books and asked if we could make Sir Topham Hat (aka the Fat Controller). "Errrrrr......Ummmmm.....I'm not how we would do that" says me. "it's easy, we follow the instructions I need a toilet roll tube, a egg and tape" says lil man. So I take the book off him and have a look.
It says that you need to scan the picture of Sir Topham Hatand print it to fit the toilet roll tube, well I don't have ink so I drew the image of his shirt, jacket and trousers on the toilet roll tube. Lil man proceeded to colour it in with felt tip pens and did the same to the polystyrene egg and drew a face on it. I set about making a hat from thick paper.
I'm really impressed with how it turned out. We may have to re-do it when I get some ink as well.
