Junior Ranger "S." spent a lot of time completing his popsicle stick Fort Stanwix. It has a draw bridge and even four bastions. He even found cannons and model soldiers to put inside of it to represent a siege!
You can make your own fort out of anything from popsicle sticks, to blocks, to cardboard!
