A simple and easy craft for all ages. You could use these for pretend play in any situation and they are easy to take in a pocket as they are so small.


Material

  • Paddle pop sticks
  • pipe cleaners
  • textas

Method

  1. Twist one pipe cleaner around the middle of a paddle pop stick to make the arms.
  2. Draw a face and you're done.

Notes

This is an easy craft for most ages, and from preschool up they should be independent with making these themselves.

  • Older children shorten the one used as the head and body, and glue on more to use for the arms and legs. Decorate them with old wrapping paper using glue or sticky tape. Depending on the age of the child, Mum may need to cut the paper or supervise the process. You could also use material scraps or left over knitting yarn.
