Watermelon Slices Made From Popsicle Sticks

Let me start off this tutorial by saying I absolutely LOVE drawing inspiration from children’s book.

Take for example today’s Popsicle Stick Watermelon Slice craft idea. It’s inspired by one of our favorites The Watermelon Seed by Greg Pizzoli.

With perfect comic pacing, Greg Pizzoli introduces us to one funny crocodile who has one big fear: swallowing a watermelon seed. What will he do when his greatest fear is realized? Will vines sprout out his ears? Will his skin turn pink? This crocodile has a wild imagination that kids will love.

With bold color and beautiful sense of design, Greg Pizzoli’s picture book debut takes this familiar childhood worry and gives us a true gem in the vein of I Want My Hat Back and Not a Box.

Now without ado, today’s watermelon themed craft idea is absolutely perfect for story time and summer! So don’t delay – grab those craft supplies and “grow” some today! You can find EVERYTHING you need to know, in our full watermelon themed tutorial below!

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your finished craft stick watermelon slices with us on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see them as well! #gluedtomycrafts

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
