Today we were talking about Chinese New Year. We had the opportunity on the weekend to see a dragon dance (we were actually at a local pet store and they were doing it!). So, we decided to make our own dragons today.
First, I got everything ready. I cut the egg cartons, collected some shape stickers, crayons, glue, and cut out some wing shapes and a tongue shape. And we also used the little folding pin things- my brain is not working right now, so I can not think of the name. But we used them to put the head on- you know the one, you push it in, and then the end bends two ways so the head can move still!
First the kids decorated the egg cartons with stickers.
Then they coloured the wings, and head.
After that we glued on the tongue and wings, and added some sticker eyes.
Then we attached the head with the pin thing!
And here are their egg carton dragons
