Large feather (available at craft stores)
Craft knife
Washable ink
To make the quill, cut a triangular point in the hard end of the feather (the base end). Use the craft knife to cut along the triangle so as to form a sharp point (a parent's job). To use the pen, dip the tip into a jar of ink and then
dab it onto a piece of paper towel before writing.
