Making : Your child’s very own MOOSE HEAD!
We love this activity!
It’s very simple and quick to make, and it’s so unique to the child who makes it!
What you need:
1. Paper Carton (we used recycled cereal box)
2. Crayons, scissors, glue
What you do:
– Trace both your child’s hands and one of her foot onto the paper carton, and cut them out
– Colour the ‘hand prints’ (these will be the moose’s horns!)
– Glue the ‘horn’s onto the ‘foot print’ (on the ‘toe’ side)
– Draw a ‘face’ on the ‘foot print’
And that is it!
Your kids get to make their very own moose head AND best of all, mommy gets a ‘souvenir’ that will pleasantly remind her of her kids’ tiny hands and feet!
I’m keeping these!
