“Bello” my crafty friends!! Who is ready to see the NEW Minion movie being released this weekend? I know we are!

To celebrate the release of “what looks to be” a really good movie – I recently made this fun Popsicle Stick Minions kid craft with my son. And of course – it was a big hit for us and I just had to share it with you all, in hopes it’s a slam dunk in your house too!

So let’s stop “minioning” around and get straight to the simple & inexpensive tutorial – shall we? Happy crafting and hopefully watching a MINION MOVIE {affiliate link} my friends! Poopaye! #gluedtomycrafts

Supplies:

* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
* School Glue
* Yellow Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Paper Plate
* Scissors
* Black/Gray/White Cardstock

Directions:

* First assemble the base of your minions. For each, simply glue your popsicle sticks together to look like a fence. Set aside to let it dry completely.
* Next have your child paint the front of the popsicle stick fences completely yellow. Set aside to let it dry completely.
* Now cut out the cardstock embellishments to give the minion pieces life. We did a strip of black, gray circles for the goggles and white/black circles for the eyes. Then we finished with some black hair and a black smirk.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Minions craft, glue on the paper embellishments and let it all dry completely, before displaying proudly!

——————————–

And in TRUE fashion around here – here is are TWO other kid friendly craft that goes along perfectly with the minion theme.

For the Paper Plate Minion Kid Craft – simply cut up some yellow tissue paper, glue it all over a paper plate and add similar cardstock pieces, like in the craft above, to give it life!

For the Craft Spoon Minions – simply have children paint/decorate the craft spoon and then hot glue a wiggle eye on!
