rainy day project for children

About

This was a classroom project. I needed a craft project to do with my students. I had noticed one of my students trying to twist the pipe cleaners and yard around the sticks so we all sat there and started making people. I tried to make Sponge Bob and Patrick Star with the colors we had. Sponge Bob looks more like Homer Simpson lol

DIRECTIONS: i cut a tongue depressor & 2 popsicle sticks in half. i then glued the popsicle sticks halves to the half of a tongue depressor (in a star/people shape) i started wrapping the pipe cleaners from the head to the feet. after i added the pants/shirt on top of the skin color. i added 2 wiggly eyes and used a piece of pipe cleaner for a mouth. i used to hot glue to keep pipe cleaners ends in place.
