Making : Stick man

Here’s a quick session Anya and I had today (during Vai’s brief early afternoon nap).

We made a stick man on a cup!

[oh, just in case you're wondering about the thingy on Anya's head, it's a Tigger headband! She likes to put it around her neck and waist too at times. It's a necklace and a belt too, she says]

What we used:

>> Styrofoam cup

>> Disposable wooden chopstick (the ones you get from ordering take-aways)

>> white carton (for the head, shirt and bottom)

>> scissors, glue, scotch-tape, crayons / coloured pencils

I poked the chopstick through the foam cup’s base. Then I cut out the white carton and made the head, shirt and pants shapes.

Anya did the drawing, colouring, glueing and pasting.

And there you go.

It’s Daddy, she said!

PS: To make it ’stand’ on its own, I stuck the chopstick on playdough.
