Craft: Turtle
Supplies:
- Green felt
- Styrofoam ball (we used 2 1/2" balls), cut in half using a craft knife
- Green paint
- Green pom-pom (we used 1" pom poms)
- Googly eyes
- Glue
- Glitter glue
Instructions:
Pre-cut balls in half and paint green. To help with painting, stick a skewer into the flat side of the half-ball, then hold the skewer while painting. Allow to dry (put skewers into a cup).
Pre-cut turtle bases. First trace around the half-ball, then draw four legs and a tail. Cut out the pattern, then trace onto felt (I used a Sharpie marker).
At the meeting, have the girls glue the flat part of the styrofoam half-ball onto the felt base. Glue on the head and eyes. Add detail using glitter glue or paint.
