This is a great craft for little hands. Parents can help with cutting and gluing.
Materials
- Scratch Art Kit: Can be found at Michaels or on Amazon
- Felt: 1 piece each of green, purple, orange and white. I found a Halloween-themed set of felt at AC Moore.
- Google Eyes: These can be found in any craft store or in the craft section at Walmart.
- Glue: Elmer’s school glue or tacky glue works best.
- Scissors
- Toothpicks: These help with applying glue to small parts such as the eyes and fangs.
