Thought of this fun little craft for the Letter T (is for Turtle) this week. Both boys did the painting just fine and then Thing One and I did the rest together (it was a little more intricate than I imagined for 4 year old hands), but they came out cute!

TO MAKE: use the ends of an egg carton (so you’ll get 4 turtles per carton). The middles don’t work because there is not a “shell” all the way around. Trim the pointing part so it sits even with the rounded edge. Paint. Let dry and poke 4 holes for the feet. Thread 1/2 pipe cleaner through and roll the ends to make little feet. Glue eyes to a small pom-pom and let dry, then glue the pom-pom head to the front of the shell (front is the part that is not solid, the part you cut off to make it sit evenly).

this is the bottom – you can see how the ends of the carton make a shell around 3/4 of turtle – and then the more disconnected last 1/4 makes a spot for gluing the head.

pipe cleaner across the outside so the feet would come out from under the shell.

better shot of the front 1/4 were the head goes. I am sure it will make perfect since once you cut up an egg carton!

head gluing

counted our turtles himself – he wanted to play with them but they were still drying.
