Directions:
- First print out the watermelon slice template printable, that is listed above in the supply list. You will want to print it on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per watermelon craft.
- Now grab your scissors and trim out the watermelon slice from the printable. Discard excess paper.
- Next grab your choice of adhesive and glue the watermelon slice to the center of another piece of colored cardstock paper.
- Now grab your two clothespins and pom poms.
- Pinch ONE pom pom into each of the clothespins. You now have TWO polka dot paint brushes!
- Next squirt the two different paint colors {black and green} on the paper plate.
- Dip one clothespin paint brush in the green and the other in the black.
- Now you are ready to paint! Add green dots along the rim of the watermelon slice, as well as adding a few black “watermelon seeds” in the inside.
- Once done, set it aside to let it dry completely before moving onto the next step.
- To finish off the polka dot watermelon craft, glue on the wiggle eyes and draw on a smile. That’s it!
