The other day the kids and I did this arts and crafts thing together.
We made a Balloon Lady!
What we used:
> A balloon (for the ‘head’)
> Crepe paper, cut to strips - approx. 1.5cm wide (for the ‘hair’)
> Glue
> Coloured cartons (for the eyes and mouth)

After I inflated the balloon and cut the cream-coloured crepe paper, the kids started smearing some glue on the top of the balloon.
I opened up the strips of crepe paper and the kids put the long strips across the top.

Oh btw, I cut out some shorter and wider strips too for the fridge and back of the head.

I then cut out these shapes : two oval eyes and a crescent smiley mouth. Anya then did the gluing and pasting onto the balloon.

And VOILA!
Here’s a big Hello from the Balloon Lady!!
