My First Scooter? Some of you might think this is my first project making a scooter. It's not. This is referring to a scooter that used by pre-school kids. 

It's a trainer scooter. That's why it has 3 wheels. Sometimes it came in 4 wheels which then you can modify it to 3 wheels or 2 wheels. 

Your kids might love their scooter so much and asking for the miniature for their birthday cake.

If that so, my tutorial would be handy for you. 


Tools & Materials:


Steps to make My First Scooter:


Step 1:

  • We are making the scooter base now. 
  • Firstly connect the red and white clay made previously in step 2 with white glue. 
  • And then attach the 3 wheels to the body as above.


Step 4:

  • When the clay shapes at step 3 completely dry, attach the base for the stirring stick. You can roll red clay to the cone shape and flatten the top part slightly. 
  • Wrap the toothpick or wire with white clay, leave it to dry.
  • Roll red clay to a triangle shape, insert it to the top of the toothpick.
  • Roll 2 small sausage shapes for the handle. Attach the sausages shape to the triangle shape.
  • Finally insert the bottom of the stick to the stick base.


Voila! it's ready.
