I’m always on the lookout for easy toddler crafts. The less preparation, materials, and effort involved, the better. Let’s face it. I’m lazy when it comes to crafts.
I saw this craft somewhere at some point in my life, but I don’t remember where. It’s super easy. It takes 3 materials and 3 minutes to prepare.
Materials:
Piece of paper
Cotton balls
Glue
Three minutes of preparation:
Cut out the shape of a fuzzy spring animal- a lamb or a bunny. (I’m sure there are more fuzzy spring animals, but I’m drawing a blank.)
Now, before I show you the awesome picture of our lamb, I must warn you not to get jealous of my artistic abilities. Jealousy isn’t very becoming. Also, it won’t get you any closer to being as great of an artist as me.
See? I’m amazing.
Now that those 3 minutes of preparation are up, gather your toddler and glue. Help your toddler smear glue all over your fuzzy spring animal.
Give your toddler some cotton balls and instruct her to cover all the glue with the cotton balls.
Voila.
Set it aside in a special place to show to Daddy (or Mommy or Grandma or Grandpa or the neighbor) as soon as it dries.
