Bending the Sticks
First boil some water in the pot. Second boil the posicle sticks for roughly 5-10minutes or less, they just need to be rubbery. Next take the rubber like popsicle sticks and bend them between something, and leave it there untill it's dry ( blow dryer helps)a few of the sticks might break.
The Bow String
Take the elastic and tie the ends into loops
Finishing Bow
Take the elasitc and wrap the loops around each end multiple times to make sure that the elastic doesn't fall off.
Amo
Take the pencil crayon(s) and the hack saw and make notches on the pencil crayons. You may want a few hundred pencil crayons because the amo gets lost. Now testing! I think everyone knows how to fire a bow and arrow. Note: I am not responsable for anything that happens using these bows, use them at your own risk! If you managed to make more than one bow, hide around your house with a friend and spend a day firing pencil crayons at each other, its quite fun, and dangerous.
