Martin & Sylvia: Saturdays! Printable Project Page: Our Own Town
When Daddy is asked to join the town planning committee in the Martin & Sylvia: Saturdays! story “Our Own Town,” Martin and Sylvia are inspired to do some planning of their own. Daddy gives them clay, toothpicks and popsicle sticks to make a gazebo, a town hall and a police station. (You can see some of their town buildings above.) You can make your own town too!
Find the same materials - or use things you have on hand - and get to building.
