Fun Fantasy Craft!

Hi readers,

Have you ever wanted your own pet dragon? Well now you can with this fun and easy dragon egg craft! (Though we can’t guarantee it’ll hatch, the eggs are just as nice!)

*Be sure to ask an adult for help to create your magical craft!

What you’ll need:

• Aluminum foil
• Air-dry clay
• Liquid watercolours (or food colouring)
• Accessories to decorate your egg, like beads, seashells, jewels, and stones

What to do:

1. Mix clay with a few drops of watercolors or food colouring.
2. Crumple a sheet of aluminum foil into an egg shape.
3. Roll the clay flat and wrap it around the ball of aluminum foil. Make sure the clay is about half and inch thick so the decorations can stick into it!
4. Decorate your egg with accessories.
5. Let egg dry for 24 hours.
6. Show off your dragon egg to your friends and family!

That’s it! If you create an egg or a whole batch, let us know in the comments below!

Bye for now,

Easy and Fun Airplane Craft

Hi readers,

Ever wanted to fly a plane? Though this craft won’t be as big as a plane you’d see at the airport, you can let it soar all around your home and outside. If you follow these simple steps below, you’ll have your very own airplane in no time!

*Remember to always ask an adult for help when crafting.

You’ll need:

• clothespins
• foam craft sticks
• glue
• scissors

What to do:

1. Take three foam craft sticks and cut them into the shape of wings that you’d see on an old-fashioned plane. (The two front wings will be longer than the back wing.)
2. Cut a small piece of foam into a semicircle.
3. Glue the wings onto a clothespin. On the front-end of the plane, glue one long wing on top and the other on the bottom. On the back-end, glue the small wing on top. When the wings are dry, glue the fin onto the back wing.
4. Let dry.

That’s it! (Above is how your cute and tiny airplane will look.)

If you make this craft, let us know in the comments below about your airplane soaring adventures!
