A to Z Crafts - O for Octopus

We did a session on Jellyfish for our letter J lesson, so while choosing the craft for this "O for octopus" lesson, I hope the craft does not end up similar to the one we did on Jellyfish.

O for Octopus

What you'll need:
1) A toilet roll
2) A button
3) A pair of scissors
4) Marker pen

Instruction:
1) Cut the bottom of the toilet roll as the arms of octopus, as shown in the picture below, it should be 8 arms only.
2) Use the marker pen to draw the eyes.
3) Paste the button at the centre as the nose
4) You may colour the toilet roll if you want to.

A to Z Crafts - N for Necklace

I've done this craft with my girl before in my fun class, which I find it quite fun and easy to do, thus I did it again with my son. Basically, you just need a string and some macaroni.

N for Necklace

What you'll need:
1) A string (preferably elastic)
2) Macaroni
3) Water colour (optional)

Instruction:
1) Paint the macaroni (if you prefer it to be colourful)
2) Let the kid thread the macaroni with a string
3) Tie it with a knot

 The necklace done:

The kids enjoyed playing with the macaroni.

I did not colour the macaroni, because those macaroni were our lunch the next day! Don't worry, I did wash the macaroni before cooking.....lol!

A to Z Crafts - M for Mickey Mouse!

I wanted to do a craft of a cartoon character that they are familiar with, definitely not going to do anything related to 'monkey' since they've done it so many times already. I came across this very cute Mickey Mouse made from toilet roll, which is easy to do, and easy to associate with my letter M lesson.

M for Mickey Mouse 

What you'll need:
1) Toilet roll
2) Black, white and red paper
3) Button
4) Water colour
5) Glue


Instruction:
1) Paint the toilet roll with black water colour, leave aside to dry.
2) Cut the shape of the head (with ears) out from the black paper
3) Cut the shape of the face out from the white paper
4) Paste the cut outs to the toilet roll (after dried)
5) Paste the red paper (cover half of the toilet roll) to the toilet roll, do your measurement.
6) Paste the button.
7) Draw the eyes, nose and mouth.

Done!
