Crafty Cereal-bowl Carapaces

Has the suspense been killing yah? We made cereal-bowl turtles this week at camp! The inspiration of making colorful carapaces came from reading Jabuti the Tortoise by Gerald McDermott. Here's (just one way) how you can make a recycled turtle!!

After some short prep of hot gluing popsicle sticks for flippers/legs and gluing construction paper (or pompoms) for heads...

just "paint on" various colors of tissue paper with a equal parts glue/water mixture.

Let dry and...

Viola! You have made super cute and eco-friendly turtles :-]
