Inside: How to make a paper boat hat tutorial with template
Instead of handing out a regular cone-shaped party hat for a recent fairytale book inspired birthday bash, I thought it would a fun DIY to make these paper boat hats for all our bookworm guest! Now, these fun party hats don’t have to be used just for a library inspired birthday! They are a great and easy project that you can do any time of the year with the kiddos!
The kids that attending the party adored them, it was so fun to see them running around letting their imagination take control! It was such a festive way to bring printed book pages into our theme!
This is such an easy DIY to make like I said the kiddos will love them and you can make them any time of year. Here is a paper boat tutorial with the temple on how to cut and fold your paper boat hat!
