Crocodile Bookmark

Crocodile Bookmark

Materials Needed

  • Coloured Paper
  • Glue
  • Scissors
  • Pencil
  • Coloured Pencils
  • Markers

Method
  1. On a piece of green paper sketch out the head of the crocodile, an oval type shape.
  2. Cut it out and trace it to make the bottom of the head.
  3. Glue the backs of the ovals together, so that it can open up like a mouth.
  4. Using the other coloured paper decorate the head and add detail.
This is a fairly simple activity and can be adapted to other animals.

Dot and Line Animal Pictures

Dot and Line Animal Pictures

Materials Needed

  • Animal Outlines
  • Different Coloured Paper
  • Markers
  • Glue
Method

  1. Either draw or print off some animal outlines. A simple Google search should let you find some. I imagine the animals you would use would be country specific so I wont post any links.
  2. Using different colours fill in the pictures with lines and dots that give the animal definition. (see below)
  3. Cut this picture out and glue it on some coloured card.
  4. Create a nature scene surrounding it using the same dot and line method you used to fill the animal in.
This activity of course doesn't need to be limited to animals but can incorporate a large number of themes.
