Cook Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 1 turtle

Equipment

  • Tacky Glue

Ingredients

  • 10-15 small pom poms (use various colors)
  • 1 medium pom pom - for the turtle's head
  • 2 small squiggly eyes
  • 1 short pipe cleaner
  • 4 regular pipe cleaners
  • 1 small piece cardboard - cut into a small oval

Instructions

  • Wrap the short pipe cleaners around so it’s the size of the cardboard oval. Glue it on. This forms the border for the shell.
  • Glue on the pom poms to make a turtle shell. Start by gluing a circle just inside the pipe cleaners. Then, glue layers upwards into a shell.
  • Once the shell is done, glue a small tail at one end. On the other end, glue a small pom pom as a neck.
  • Glue the medium pom pom on as the turtle’s head. Then glue on 2 squiggly eyes.

Make the turtle's legs

  • Take a pipe cleaner and wrap it tightly around a pencil. Slide it off the pencil and glue it on the bottom of the oval cardboard. Repeat this three times to make all the legs.
  • Allow everything to dry fully.
