The craft of the wings - the four steps:
1. Setting a date for the activity
A "launch day" is set in the community diary when the wings are hung on the host wall.
2. Collecting plastic toys
Two weeks before, the event is announced among the community, and everyone is invited to donate toys:
Small, in all colors, made of plastic, which are no longer used.
Define a collection point for toys and three days before the event, it is advisable to make sure that enough toys of the required type have been collected.
3. Prepare the stencil of the wings
Drawing the wings on plywood and cutting their shape with the help of the Jackson saw - can be prepared in advance and before the start of the community activity or can be done during the activity.
