To create a rubbing of your Viking ship design, use the template in our resource or draw your design directly onto a piece of paper. Once you have your design, use glue to trace over the lines and let it dry. This activity requires patience, but once the glue is dry, you can make as many rubbings as you'd like. Charcoal and crayons work well for this activity, but feel free to experiment with other art supplies such as pastels. Happy crafting!
