1. The very deep hole

If you jumped into a very deep hole, what land would you like—or not like—to land in? Draw yourself falling through the hole and into the land of your dreams … or nightmares!
2. Time machine

Imagine travelling back to the time of the dinosaurs or forward into the distant future! Your time machine has just landed. When and where are you? Write about what you see and draw it.
3. Open the box

Imagine you find a box that is clearly labelled ‘WARNING! DO NOT OPEN!’ Should you open it? It’s hard not to, because there might be something amazing in there. What’s in the box? Open it and write and draw about what comes out.
4. Design a monster

Think up the most terrifying, horrible, disgusting, vile, vicious, life-threatening monster you can. Draw its picture (if you dare!) and fill in its SCARY MONSTER I.D. badge.
5. Design an adventure mobile

I wonder what kind of things you might need on an adventure? What kind of vehicle will it be?
A boat?
A car?
A plane?
All three?
6. Finish the Cover

Hey, you! Can you please help finish the cover for our next book about us having another one of our GIGANTIC adventures? The book needs a title and a cover picture. Have fun, (and feel free to write the rest of the book if you get inspired!)

Adventurers!

Heroes wear capes. Adventurers wear DIY helmets!

Watch Bill show you how to make your Adventurer helmet HERE.

Grab yourself a box (bigger than your head, of course) and follow these simple instructions to make your own adventure helmet. Give it a face and let’s go! Its time for Adventure!
