REMEMBER THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WORK UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. SOMETIMES WE USE THINGS THAT CAN BE HARMFUL, LIKE SCISSORS, SO DON'T EVER ATTEMPT TO MAKE THESE CRAFT PROJECTS ALONE.

Put your blue placement on top of green shelving paper, and trace around. Cut the outline out.
Use a black marker to trace out an Old World and New World on shelving paper. You can look at a map to get a better idea of what this would look like.
Cut out the land shapes and stick them on.
Draw and cut out a boat out of brown paper and place it on the mat, sailing from the Old World to the New World.
Cut out 3 sails out of white shelving paper and stick them onto your boat.
Draw in the masts of the sails with a marker.
With a silver marker, draw a key that shows North, South, East, West. Draw arrows and label them.
Write “Pilgrim’s” and “Voyage” on the bottom left and right corners with silver marker.
