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.
