Follow Matthew's easy
step-by-step guide to make this cool puppet crocodile.
Use
design your own snappy creature! Ask an
adult to help you with the scissors and glue.
|
|
|
| |
|
|
You
will need:
1 piece each of: red, green and white card;
A black marker pen;
A peg (plastic or wooden);
PVA glue;
A pair of scissors
|
|
 |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
Draw
your own design on to the pieces of card or use
our stencil. The top and bottom of the head/jaws are green,
the tongue is red and the eyes and nostrils are white.
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Cut
around the solid lines and score
the card along the bigger dotted lines - then
you can bend those bits. |
|
 |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
You
should end up with seven separate pieces
which you can start to glue together. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Glue
the eyes and nostrils into position
on the top jaw, and the tongue
on to the bottom jaw. When the
glue is dry, take the two parts of the crocodile head and glue
them on to the peg.
|
|
 |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
 |
|
Glue
the underside of the top
jaw onto the top of the peg, holding the bits you press
towards you. Then glue the tongue
side of the bottom jaw to the underside of the peg.
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Wait
until the glue is dry, and then
you are ready to play with your snappy crocodile! You should be able
to open and close the mouth by
opening and shutting the peg.
