|
Then, wrap a small piece of tape around the other
end for a needle. |
|
Show your child how to sew her heart by stringing
the yarn in and out of the holes. |
|
You may need to attach additional yarn pieces
for your child to finish the heart.
VARIATION: Show your child how to sew around
the heart, by looping the yarn around the outside
edge each time. |
SEWING |
|
You will need a large hat for
this tossing game. |
|
Set the hat on the floor up-side-down. |
|
Give your child 5-10 (3")
hearts cut from heavy paper. |
|
Then, have him stand back a
couple feet and attempt to toss the hearts into
the hat.
|
HEART
STUFFING |
|
For this project, you will need
two large pages of newspaper. |
|
Stack the two pages and cut
out two identical large hearts. |
|
Keeping one heart on top of
the other, staple around the edges of the two hearts,
leaving a few inches near the bottom point unstapled
(leaving an opening large enough for your child
to stick her hand up inside the heart). |
|
Next, give her small squares
of newspaper (approximately 8" x 8") to
crumple up and stuff into her heart. |
|
Staple the bottom edges together,
when your child is finished. |
|
Have your child paint or decorate
her heart if she wishes. |
