I’m sure we all have egg cartons ‘scattered’ in our house from time to time. Let’s see what we can do with those cartons.
I think we can do a cute penguin out of it…
Paint the egg carton white
Cut a strip of black craft foam and wrap it around the painted carton. You'll need two.
Use a stapler to stapel them together
Trim off the excess carton
Add the wings of the penguin
Decorate the penguin with googly eyes, orange craft foam as the beak, yellow craft foam as the feet and tie a ribbon around it’s neck as a scarf. Give it an ear muff for maximum coolness effect! You may want to glue a magnet at the back of it and it can be a cute fridge magnet!

Cynthia, for this craft, Ethan can only paint the egg carton. The rest I have to do it as it is too difficult for his level.
