Experiments with liquids and sand
The parents attached several tubes to the perforated fiberboard, and attached a funnel to the top end of each tube so that they could easily pour liquid or pour sand, which would flow down through the tubes.
To better see the water flowing through the transparent tubes, you can pour it into several containers and add food coloring. So for each pipe there will be water of a certain color.

To make such a toy you will need:
Cardboard box
Scissors or utility knife
A set of sticks for children's crafts (can be replaced with cardboard)
Paints or stickers (to decorate the maze)

Medium coin or large diameter or a plastic bottle cap
Pencil.
1. Take a suitable box and, if necessary, cut off one side so that you can build a maze inside it.
2. Prepare a set of sticks for children's crafts or simply cut cardboard into strips. As you create the maze, you will trim these strips with scissors.
3. Before starting construction of the labyrinth, it is better to draw it with a simple pencil, and then glue strips of cardboard or wooden sticks to the drawn lines.
4. Start gluing cardboard strips or sticks edgewise to the drawn lines with hot glue, trimming them where necessary.
5. To make “traps”, trace the coin with a pencil and use stationery knife cut out a circle that will fit a ball, bead or balloon. Cut the traps so that a bead or ball can pass by them.
If you want to keep the bead from falling on the floor, bend (and trim if necessary) the sides of the box and insert it inside another box (see image).

How to make a toy with your own hands (video)
You need straws for cocktails, bamboo skewers (skewers), bottle caps, a milk or juice carton.
Tools you will need for work:
- cutter (adults only!);
- scissors;
- decorative paper;
- ribbons;
- glue.

Take a cutter (or small knife) and make a small hole in the center of each bottle cap. You need to place the cork on some surface - plywood, thick cardboard - to ensure safety during cutting and not damage the table.
Then cut the straws a little larger than the width of the box - these will be the axles for the car wheels.
Start assembling the wheels and axles. First, insert a stick into one of the holes. Add a drop of glue for a more secure attachment.
Then “put” straws on the stick.
Repeat the operation with the lids and sticks, only on the other side of the sticks.
If your kids want to make a bus and cut out windows or doors, they should do this before gluing on the wheels. You can also do fire truck, an ambulance or whatever you want. If you separate the body from the cab, you can make a dump truck.
Your truck is ready!

How to make paper cars if you have no experience in designing at all? Where should you start, and what are the next stages of work? These issues need to be taken seriously. The child must learn to set a task for himself and be able to solve it.
Cardboard racing car
Let's look at how to make a machine with your own hands. To do this you will need:
- cardboard cylinder;
- scissors;
- colored paper and plain paper;
- stationery pins;
- a set of felt-tip pens;
- white and black cardboard.
The body of the car will consist of a cylinder; it will be covered with paper of any color. 4 black wheels and 4 white wheels are cut out of additional cardboard.
Additional cardboard circles are glued to the end parts of the car so that there are no through holes in the cylinder. The glued circles can be painted with felt-tip pens.
The wheels are attached with push pins in the center of the circle, and their ends are bent from the inside of the cylinder. A small hole for the driver should be cut on top of the finished body. The finished car is painted with felt-tip pens.
Electronic machine with remote control
Children really like cars with remote control. If you don't see it in the store suitable model, then you can assemble it yourself. Today, every home with children is full of toy junk. There you can select suitable spare parts and bodywork.
You will need the following:
- wheels;
- frame;
- electric motor;
- different screwdrivers.
Build process
Most likely, some parts will have to be purchased. This applies to the control system. If a homemade machine has a simple control panel, it will be simpler and more cost-effective. When installing radio control elements, you may have to spend more money for parts.
Having distributed the assembly plan and the dimensions of the device, you need to start assembling. The chassis must include wheels. The product itself must be error-free and easy to move. Good grip for the machine will be provided by wheels with rubber tires.
There are two types of motor. Its choice depends on the user who will manage it. If this is a child, then you need to install an electric motor. It will cost less; if possible, it can be removed from a broken toy car.
If the machine is intended for adult users, then you can install a gasoline engine on it. It will cost an order of magnitude more, and caring for it will be more difficult.
Wired controls will limit the movement of the machine. It is preferable to choose a radio unit, then the product will be able to move independently of the wires. But movement will also only take place within radio range.
The choice of body is determined by taste preferences. The variety of models today is simply huge, everything is limited by imagination and budget.
Having prepared all the elements, you need to begin installation. The chassis with wheels is mounted first. Next, the motor and radio are installed on the frame. An antenna is attached to the body. If all components were purchased in a store, then installation instructions should be included.
The batteries are attached last. After debugging the engine, the housing is attached to the chassis. The finishing touch There may be decorations from various stickers. The car is ready!
Homemade complex type machine
You can give other instructions on how to make a radio-controlled car. To do this you will need:
- Body of any model;
- Powerful 12V battery;
- Radio control;
- Charger;
- Soldering tool and all necessary components for it;
- Electrical measuring instruments;
- Rubber blanks for bumpers;
Installation process
Process step-by-step assembly The machines are much more complex than the previous type. The suspension elements are assembled first. Then the gearbox with plastic gears is assembled.
To install it, a thread is made in the housing. Next, the motor is connected to power and its performance is checked.
Radio circuits are mounted in such a way that overheating does not occur. Sometimes a radiator is attached to them. At the end, the model body is assembled. That's all you need to make a radio-controlled car.
To homemade car It had maneuverability, and with good speed one must try not to overload it with unnecessary parts.
The presence of headlights and dimensions looks nice, but to attach them, wiring must be installed. As a result, this will complicate the design and assembly.

You can make a toy car in many ways and from many materials. You can use wood, mono plastic bottle, or maybe cardboard. Of course, it’s quite difficult to do something really worthwhile, but if you try and approach the matter with your head, the result will be positive in any case. It is worth noting that it is best to give your child not a homemade product, but a radio-controlled car, which you can buy on the RC-GO website, where you can also purchase radio-controlled helicopter and much more.Making a toy car
Let's start with the use of wood. You can make a very good model out of wood.
For this you will need the following:
Bar;
four wheels;
varnish;
sandpaper;
knife;
hacksaw;
glue.
IN in this case the machine consists of three parts, namely the body and two bridges. It is their production that needs to be done. First the body. It is necessary to saw off the timber, its length must correspond to the length of the car body. Then you need to make a body from the blank, cutting and grinding off the excess wood. The most important thing is to take your time. The result should be a body polished to a shine. And also, at the bottom of the car body it is necessary to make cutouts for installing bridges. As for the bridges themselves, they can be made from planks. You can use many different things that look like wheels as wheels.
Then the bridges must be glued to the body and the machine must be varnished. If there is any suitable sticker available, then it needs to be pasted on the machine in the place where it should have a door.
Another option is to use cardboard. In this case, in addition to cardboard, you will need scissors, glue and wheels. You can use anything else, it all depends on your imagination.
First done supporting frame, for its production it is precisely possible to attract something that has not been voiced. The axles need to be fixed to the frame; as for what can be used in their role, it all depends on what the wheels are. For example, pastes from helium pens or bodies from the same pens can be used as bridges. You need to make a body and a cabin out of cardboard, what exactly to do can be seen in the image.
If you use a plastic bottle, the chassis can be made from branches and wheels from caps. Well, in general there are a lot of options. By the way, the creation of cars can be entrusted to the child himself.
