Everyone knows you can't run a space station without them.

Materials

• several small boxes
• aluminum foil
• pipe cleaners

• bottle tops
• pasta box
• colored tape

Instructions

1. Use scissors to remove the back of a small box, as shown. Cover it with aluminum foil.

2. Use pipe cleaners to attach bottle-top knobs. We stacked several boxes and used a pasta box with a window plus colored tape to make a nifty door.

Tips:

Good boxes for control panels: cracker, tissue, pasta, tea, cereal. Good plastic bottle lids for knobs: dishwashing liquid, squeeze-style mustard or relish, water or sports drink, glue.
