Quack Quack!


One of the Zebra's favourite things right now is to feed the ducks, but with this rubbish weather we aren't able to get out often... So we've decided to bring the ducks inside!


The feathers are optional, the craft works well with just the prints, but we love to glue with "tickle-tickles"!


The Zebra is so good at hand and footprints now, she barely needs any help from mummy...


On one piece of card, print two yellow feet, and then two brown hands on the other. Let them dry before glueing.


Spread a little bit of pva over the body of the duck, then stick on any coloured feathers you want!


To make the Mallard duck, cut out a head and neck shape in green, a beak in orange, and glue down a googely eye...


For the rubber duck, use yellow paint to make a big round head, and then stick on the beak and eyes 

They may not be the real thing, but they are cute enough to do till spring!

Christmas wreath

A very simple craft to make a Christnas essential!
I had some green paper covered in glitter left over from our Christnas cards. Other than that I just needed some feathers, paper plates, ribbon and glue
Cut the middle out of the plates and cut the paper into little bits
Cover the plate in glue 
Stick on the paper 
Dip the feathers in glue 
Stick the feathers onto the paper!
Cut a piece of ribbon to make a hook and glue on. I pegged it while it was drying to help secure it.
And there you have it! A festive wreath that can be made in any colour
