Who this list is for

This soundproof room model craft is for 11-year-olds comparing safe materials in a small room-acoustics model. It does not measure professional soundproofing or make claims about how a real room will perform.

How to use this list

Use the medium cardboard box as the model room. Add craft felt sheets, bubble wrap, corrugated cardboard scraps, cotton batting, aluminum foil, and wooden craft sticks in separate areas or removable test panels. Use masking tape for temporary comparisons and white school glue for final placement. Record what changes between material setups on the observation cards.

Do not call one material a proven soundproofing solution based on this small craft model. Compare one material arrangement at a time, using the observation cards to keep notes clear. Avoid sealing every material permanently at the beginning, since removable sections make the comparisons easier.

What is on this list

You need one medium cardboard box, four craft felt sheets, two bubble wrap sheets, six corrugated cardboard scraps, one bag of cotton batting, and one aluminum foil sheet. The list also includes 12 wooden craft sticks, masking tape, white school glue, a ruler, pencil, and six observation cards. Cross off materials already in your craft area.

When you are done

Review the observation cards and compare the material setups as model results, not professional measurements. Keep removable panels with the box if the room model will be used again.
