Follow Up Activities for the story Busy Boats
Written by Tony Mitton
Illustrated by Ant Parker
There were lots of different types of transportation mentioned in the story.
Can you remember what they were?
Activity Option 1: Fold a piece of paper into 4 sections. Draw a picture of yourself riding on four of the different types of boats that were mentioned in the story. Include in the picture one important part of that particular boat. Feel free to refer to the last page of the book for some ideas. Write a sentence or two describing where that boat Is taking you.
Activity Option 2: Design a boat that you could live on for a week. Label all of the important parts of your boat. Write a description telling about everything included in your design and how it will help you live without coming to port for a week.
*Bonus: Do some research and design a boat that floats out of household materials. Test it out in your bath tub or kitchen sink with a guardian’s approval.
