July 7th 2015 - Making clipboards

July 7th 2015 - Making clipboards

Tomorrow night I am taking my SJA badgers to the local park as part of their wild badge.  We are going to be looking for different plants and trees, birds and animals as well as doing some leaf and bark rubbing.  I have printed sheets for each child to use.

Then it dawned on me that the paper is really flimsy and not strong enough to write on on its own, I need some sort of clipboard.   I don't have any at home or SJA.  So I started looking on pinterest for how to make them from cardboard.

I found this cardboard clipboard which gave me all I needed to make some.  Mine don't look as pretty as those in the pic but as a last minute thing they will do.  I think I may order some proper ones for future use.

I cut a box to bits into A4 size, covered the edges with brown parcel tape and added to clothes pegs to the top to hold the papers in place.
