*** Animals are not intended for unsupervised play.
Supplies:
Toothpicks
Hot glue gun
Cardstock
Markers
Crayons
Play dough
Benefits: motor skills, imaginative play, language.
Activity:
Draw animals on cardstock. The animals I drew were around 2-2.5 inches.
Have the child help you color in the animals.
Cut out the animals and use a hot glue gun to adhere the animals to the toothpicks. I put a dab of glue on, applied the tooth pick and then topped it with another small dab of glue.
After they dry, you can play with the animals- sticking them in the playdough.
Modifications:
You could use them in cupcakes for a party!
You could use them for pieces in a board game you create.
