Ages school-age

What you'll need

  • Roundish rock
  • Scissors
  • 3 wooden craft spoons
  • Tacky glue
  • Acrylic paint
  • Googly eyes

How to make it

  1. Look for a clean, roundish rock about 2 inches wide.

  2. Painted Turtles - Step 2

    For the legs, use scissors to cut two wooden craft spoons in half. With tacky glue, attach those four pieces to a third craft spoon as shown.

  3. Glue the rock on top of the craft spoon assembly. Let the glue set.

  4. Decorate the turtle with acrylic paint, and add a pair of googly eyes.
