This article will show you how to make a baby mobile step by step.



  1. 1
    Get a cardboard box and cut the side flaps off.
  2. 2
    Make an X with them and staple it together (make sure it stays on).
  3. 3
    Paint the X with markers or paints. Preferably bright colored to get attention.
  4. 4
    Once it has dried, take a hole puncher and punch a hole at the end of every side (you should have 4 holes).
  5. 5
    Take a piece of thick string and tie a big knot so it doesn't fall through the top of the hole.
  6. 6
    Cut out shapes from the cardboard box.
  7. 7
    Put colored images or wallpaper textures on both sides of the cardboard shape.
  8. 8
    Once you have finished that, take a wire hanger to make it straight but put a little hook on the end of it.
  9. 9
    Stick the hook part into the top of the hanger and let the straight piece extend over to side of crib and wrap around 2 bars.


  • Be sure that the staples are in so they can't come out and hurt the baby.
  • Be sure that the hanger has something stuck onto the end of it so it doesn't cut the baby.
