Walrus craft for toddlers

 

Walrus craft for toddlers
While having veggie straws for snack, one of my toddler students put two of them in his mouth and was showing them off.  We told him he looked like a walrus and that was the inspiration for the craft.  

I am not an artist.  If I can do that so can you.  It is just a circle for the head, two somewhat ovals, 4 flipper legs, 2 eyes (I don't like googly eyes, they don't stick well and they are a choking hazard for toddlers), two veggie straws and a big black "mustache".  We made it purple like in the book: "Polar bear, polar bear, what do you hear?"

There you have it, have fun with your little ones!

S'more book for toddlers

 S'more book for toddlers A print concepts activity I had so much fun doing this project during nap.  I'd like to encourage you to draw even if you think you are bad at it.  Most of us draw like a 12 years old because it is when we stopped. I saw on pinterest a similar book but it was for preschool therefore too advanced for my kids so I came up with this one.  I Google hazelnut drawing and to my surprise I found something and same thing with marsmallow fluff.  I chose the simplest one and tried to replicated it.  Well I'm happy with the result. The coloring part was fun too.
