Our eldest son made these catapults out of paddlepop sticks at Scouts and came home really excited about them and insisted that they were going to be an Elf scene.

So, we present to you the very Christmasy Paddlepop Catapult scene!

We’ve included instructions which we think are easy to follow, but if you get stuck then use the QR code which links to the instructions provided by Scouts. They have more information in their instructions and some interesting information about catapults and the physics behind them, which might be cool to talk about while your family are flinging pom poms around your living room.

Setting this scene up is very easy, just position your Elf with the building materials and place the instructions in the card stand.
