String
Duct Tape
Hot Glue Gun
Box Cutter
2 Baloons
7 pieces of Cardboard(different sizes)
2 Hooks(small)

Cut out 4 small squares of cardboard with a box cutter. Poke out holes in the middle of the squares with the skewers and glue it to the 4 CDs.

Put the skewers inside the holes. Then put hot glue on both sides, so the wheels don’t come off.

Cut out a rectanglular shape out of cardboard. Get the Victor mousetrap and glue it on the middle or on the top.

Gets 2 skewers and the rectangle you just made. Put the skewers on the side of the cardboard.

Grab another skewer. Cut it until it evens out with the other 2 skewers.Hot glue both side.

Cut 1 straw in half. Put the 2 straws on to a wheel. Cut another 2 squares on top of the straws. Then put the body on top as well.

Get a skewer and zip tie it to the mousetrap. If you want you can put it on the other side too.

Cut out a piece of string from the skewer and the wheels. Then duct tape it to the skewer.
