What You Need:
- Colored pom-poms in various sizes
- Black marker
- tacky glue
- Hot glue gun
- crafting scraps, such as yarn, felt, etc.
- googly
What to Do:
- Let your kids choose what kind of pet (or monster!) they want like to make. He can make any kind of animal out of pom-poms! If he’s making a bunny, pink or white pom-poms work best. If he would like to make a chick, he should use yellow pom-poms. Etc. Of course if they want to make monsters any colors will do!
- Use tacky glue or a hot glue gun to glue pom-poms together for the head and body. Use a smaller pom-pom for the head, and a larger one for the body.
- Glue googly eyes on the head.
- Use your craft scraps to add on extras! He can add fluffy felt ears for a bunny, feathers for a peacock, or small orange scraps for a beak on the chick. Encourage him to use his imagination and get creative with whatever you have on hand. Allow the pom-pom pet to dry.
