This is a craft Zoey spotted right away while flipping through this month's issue of American Girl magazine. I spied the owl & birdie & HAD to make this one of our fun things of the summer!
We pulled out our pom-poms, hot glue, tacky glue, felt, branches (& other natural objects like shells, acorns, pinecones, etc.), scissors & puffy paint (for the eyeballs).
We used toothpicks to apply the glue. And hot glue to attach the creatures to their twig bases.
(Pazely holds a teeny-tiny shell to her ear & carefully listens for the sound of teeny tiny ocean waves.)
Pazely stuffed pom-poms inside shells to make hermit crabs.
She puffy painted their faces on.
Zoey added string to her birdies & hung them in her bedroom.
I made a fish too, but he didn't get his photo taken yet. I used driftwood, sea glass & shells to create a little sculpture for him to rest on.
