I love these paper people.  Leslie first introduced them to us when our kids were in a preschool co-op together.  They are great for some DIY puppet making and this batch kept our kids busy for almost an hour.  The cutouts are made of card stock so they can handle some heavy decorating.   We used markers, glue, paper, plastic gems, feathers, metallic confetti, card scraps and pom-poms.  Popsicle sticks can be added as handles for a puppet show.  Older kids can cut out clothing shapes and add more detailed features.  I would love to see a full kid-designed family tree!

We spotted this egg carton dragon idea walking around the halls of Ada’s school.  Good school art projects are really important to me, and helped us decide to send her there.  The school dragons were made for Chinese New Year.  Ada suggested we also make a caterpillar version. You will need:

*Egg carton

*Paint

*Glue

*Googly eyes

*Feathers, sparkles, pom poms, popsicle sticks, glitter glue, etc.

*Pipe Cleaners (for legs and antennae)

*Ribbon (for the tail)

1. Paint the egg carton and let it dry

2. Glue on eyes and decoration

3. Push pipe cleaners into carton at desired locations.  Use scissors or a sharp pencil to make holes and squirt in some glue to keep them in place.
