WHAT YOU’LL NEED
THE SUPPLIES:
- One Medium to Large Grey Pom Pom
- One Medium to Large Black Pom Pom
- One small piece of orange pipe cleaner (can be substituted with orange felt, construction paper, etc)
- Two googly eyes
- Glue Dots
STEPS
STEP 1: Create the Body
Using your glue dot, attach the black pom pom and the grey pom pom together. Note: You could use other glue-types such as a hot glue gun or regular glue, but a glue dot works well & doesn’t require the drying time.
STEP 2: Create the Face
Using your glue dots, attach the googly eyes to the black pom pom. Cut a small piece of the orange pipe cleaner and shape into a V to look like a beak. Attach the V-shaped below the eyes
STEP 3: Create a Whole Waddle of Penguins!
(Optionally) Create a few more penguins. Use various pom pom sizes to create different sizes of penguins. Use various pom pom colors to create different species 🙂
Enjoy!
