February 10, 2022
What you'll need
- An empty tissue box
- Construction paper
- Scissors (adult supervision may be needed while cutting paper)
- Glue stick
- Markers, crayons or colored pencils
- Optional: popsicle sticks, googly eyes, pom poms, sequins, feathers and pipe cleaners
Directions
Use the opening of a tissue box as your mail slot and glue construction paper around the box.
Note: you may need to cut the construction paper to fit the different sides of the tissue box.
Once the tissue box is covered, create your monster!
Ideas include:
- Cut shapes out of other pieces of construction paper and glue them on.
- Use colored pencils, markers or crayons to decorate the monster in scales or other designs.
- Glue feathers, pom poms and other craft items onto the box.
- Once the monster has been created to your liking, allow the box to dry.
