You’ll need a few materials for this lighthouse craft:
red cupcake liners
card stock
(in various colors)
glue
scissors
I drew a long triangle shape for my daughter to cut from yellow card stock
. Use the red cupcake liners
to create the lighthouse. Fold two cupcake liners in half red side our and two cupcake liners white side out. Line them up and add a bit of glue so they stay put as shown in the picture above. Use the scissors to cut a slightly slanted line up both sides of the stack of cupcake liners.

Glue all of the pieces to a piece of blue card stock. We added a black top and brown beach to our lighthouse picture.
