UFO Craft

May

We are having so much fun with our space theme!  There are so many ideas out there to try.  Our latest project was to make a UFO.

UFO Craft

You’ll need 2 paper plates, a paper bowl, glue and anything else you want to use to decorate your UFO.

Hailey added some glitter.

Once the bowls were dry, I used a brad to attach a string so that we would be able to hang up our UFOs.

I glued the plates together and then glued the bowl on top.

Cute Little Crab

Jun

As we continue our ocean theme we learned about crabs today and made a crab.  It turned out really cute.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Here’s what you’ll need: construction paper, tissue paper, glue, wiggly eyes, 2 paper bowls and something to brush the glue on with.

Hailey did a great job tearing up the red tissue paper.

In one bowl mix a little bit of water in with some glue and brush it onto the bottom and sides of the other bowl.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Cover the bottom and sides of the bowl with red tissue paper.  You can also do this with paint instead of tissue paper if you’d like to.

While Hailey was busy covering her bowl with tissue paper I cut out a mouth and some legs.  There are 8 regular legs and 2 legs with claws.  I also cut out some seaweed from the green tissue paper which I forgot to take a picture of.

Glue on the seaweed.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Add the legs.

Our Crafts ~N~ Things

Turn the bowl covered in tissue paper right side up and put glue all over the rim.

Add eyes and a mouth and you have your finished crab.  (Hailey used so much glue that when I took this picture 5 hours after we made the crab- the glue was still wet!)
