Craft Supplies:

Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per craft
School Glue
Red Craft Paint
White Craft Paint
Small Paper Plate
Small Paint Brushes
Paper Craft Scissors
Blue Cardstock Paper
White Cardstock Paper
Paper Sharpie Markers

Directions:

First things first – grab three popsicle sticks {three per “thing” craft} and glue them together to look like a triangle.
Set aside to let it dry completely.
Repeat for each “thing” piece you want to make today.
Once the craft stick shape is dry, grab your two colors of craft paint and squirt some of a each, on the paper plate.
Have children paint TWO sides of the popsicle stick triangle shape white, while the remaining side red. This will give your piece a more recognizable look.
Again, set aside to let it dry.
Now grab your white cardstock paper and scissors.
Cut out a triangular piece for inside the popsicle stick design, as well as a small circle for the shirt emblem.
Draw a face in the center of the triangle paper and write the words “Thing 1 or 2” on the paper circle, with the black marker.
Set those two pieces aside.
Next go ahead and grab your blue cardstock paper.
Trace your child’s hand to make the wild hair.
Trim out the traced design.
To finish off the Popsicle Stick Things 1 & 2 – have children glue their paper pieces in place, as well as any other embellishments {like rhinestones and maybe some blue craft glitter} where they see fit.
Once done, set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
