Big Green Monsters

 

This colorful craft allows each child's unique creativity to show and is a great follow-up to the book, "Go Away Big Green Monster!"

Materials

• ~ Construction paper, assorted colors
• ~ Green paint
• ~ Scissors

Instructions

• ~ Have each child select a piece of construction paper. Pre-fold the paper down the center (the long way) and then open it flat again.
• ~ Pour a large drop of green paint on the center of the paper.
• ~ Help the child to re-fold along the crease.
• ~ With the paper placed on the table, have the child smooth over the top of the folded paper by pressing with their hands.
• ~ When you open the paper up, you will find a monster face.
• ~ Use scraps of brightly colored construction paper to cut out eyes, noses, ears, teeth and hair for your monsters.
• ~ The facial features can be stuck right onto the wet paint, no need to use additional glue.
