Step 1

Create the hull and wheelhouse of the tugboat using purple dough. The wheelhouse should look like a cube, and the hull should be shaped like a boat.

Step 2

Create the windows for the wheelhouse using yellow dough. You will need two side windows and larger front window. Attach the windows to the wheelhouse.

Step 3

Using the white insulating dough, make a thin square roughly the same size as the bottom of the wheelhouse. Sandwich the white insulating dough between the wheelhouse and the hull.

Step 4

Place the buzzer on top of the wheelhouse. This will be the smokestack for the tugboat. The wires will need to face the back of the boat. Insert the red wire into the rear of the hull, and insert the black wire into the back of the wheelhouse.

Step 5

Last, attach the battery holder to the tugboat. Insert the red wire into the hull and the black wire into the back of the wheelhouse. Turn on the battery holder to make the buzzer sound.
