The addition of the mini marshmallow teeth really make this one super fun for preschoolers!
Supplies you will need:
Tutorial:
1.
Fold one of them half.
Paint the bottom of the unfolded paper plate gray.
Let them dry completely.
Paint your paper bag
Also, paint your paper lunch bag gray and let it dry completely.
Make ears & nostrils
Cut two ears and two nostrils out of your gray cardstock paper.
Add hippo face
Use your stapler to staple the hippo mouth onto the bottom of the gray paper plate.
Then staple the hippo face onto the bottom of the paper lunch bag.
Glue all face details
Glue your ears, nostrils and googly eyes onto your hippo.
Glue teeth
Finish your hippo by gluing teeth on the inside of the mouth with your tacky glue.
My daughter and I have been having so much fun with our hippos.
To make the hippo more personalized, try painting it a different color like pink, blue or purple.
As a side note, I definitely recommend gluing the marshmallow teeth on with the tacky glue.
