Includes step-by-step instructions, decorations and templates needed to Build Dad a Sports Locker! All students have to do is color, cut and glue! Templates included: Sports locker, stand, graphics for basketball, hockey, golf, football, rugby, soccer, baseball, soccer and lacrosse! Requires: Paper, glue, coloring pencils and scissors. I made this Sports Locker with regular paper, just made sure I photocopied the locker template on a colored piece of paper as I thought it looked better. I would recommend using light cardstock for the stand but, again, regular paper works because that is what I used! Cardstock just looks a bit better!! Dads will love this item!!! Enjoy and Happy Father's Day!
