Turtle Mosaic Craft

After spending ages watching the turtles at Turtle Lagoon, Ethan has decided that he would like a pet turtle as his Christmas gift. 
Hopefully he will forget all about it, come Christmas,
 but for now, we decided to create our own little pet turtles.

Material: Glue, Sundae lid (the plastic disposable kind), googly eyes and craft foam.

How to: 
*Cut the foam into the shape of a turtle, then cut up a few small squares or rectangles to  stick onto the 'turtle shell'

* Apply glue to the rim of the sundae lid and stick firmly onto the turtles back to create it's shell.
(this bit is best done by an adult)

* The kids can now stick the little foam squares all over the turtles shell.

* Glue on the googly eyes and allow to dry.

Crush and Little Dude (the Butterballs totally love the movie Finding Nemo) now live in the sand pit near the pond.
