Terra Cotta Pot Frog Decor Piece Made By Kids

What little boy doesn’t love frogs? They jump when you try to get them and they are slimy.

All curious boys {and sometimes girls} try to catch & play with them.

My son hasn’t been around a real life frog yet, but I can only imagine how it will be when he does. He already likes to explore in our backyard {with no fear} and I just know the day will come when he brings me a frog & I scream out in fright.

Until that day happens, the only frogs allowed in my house are these Clay Flower Pot Frogs. They can sit nicely on a shelf or desk and won’t cause me anxiety.

Even better? The supplies for these frogs made from clay pots are inexpensive and can be easily substituted with whatever you have/find. Making this a great kids craft idea for this summer or a rainy day activity.

If you would like to recreate one of these with your child today, check out my full tutorial below. Then come share pictures when you are done on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram. I can’t wait to see what hoppin’ creations you make with your child!

Get your creative juices flowing! Create an adorable flower pot frog craft with just a few easy supplies. It’s the perfect way to show off your artistic side

Craft Supplies:

  • Terra Cotta Pots – 1 per frog
  • Green Craft Paint
  • Green Craft Foam Sheet
  • Large Wiggle Eyes
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Basic Craft Scissors
  • Sponges/Paint Brush
  • Paper Plate
  • Black Sharpie Marker

Directions:

  • First things first, you are going to paint your clay pots completely green. One pot makes ONE frog decoration.
  • Simply squirt some green paint on the paper plate and use a paint brush on the pot.
  • When done painting, set aside the painted pot to let it dry completely.
  • Repeat the above steps for each frog you want to make today.
  • While your pot is drying, start working on the other frog parts.
  • Get the glue gun hot and ready.
  • Hot glue your two wiggle eyes next to each other on the green craft foam.
  • Once the glue is dry, use your scissors to cut around the eyes, leaving a little edge.
  • Now flip your pot over so the opening in on the bottom. Then glue the new eye pieces on the frogs.
  • Next cut the feet out of the green craft foam. Our feet kinda look like hearts but missing the point on the bottom. You can make them any shape you like.
  • Are you ready to finish your clay pot frogs? We are heading to the final steps! {easy, right?} Just put some glue on the foam feet & glue them to the bottom of each pot.
  • Next grab your sharpie and draw two dots for the nose & a smiley face to give each frog – LIFE!
  • And that’s it! Now you have an awesome piece to display in your home!
