 | if doing this with a large group of children, you will want to make a
sample for them to see or draw out how the popsicle sticks will look on a
white board.
|
| Optional: Before you start assembling, you could have the children
paint the popsicle sticks brown or color them brown with marker. If
you opt to paint, you'll need to let them dry before you start gluing it all
together.
|
| Glue the first two popsicle sticks in a V shape.
|
| Glue the third popsicle stick to close the V and make a triangle, but do
this about an inch down from the top so the tops of the V stick up (like
antlers) and the sides of the third popsicle stick stick out (like
ears). See photo at the top of this page.
|
| Glue wiggly eyes onto either side of the V just under the third popsicle
sticks (or stick on white stickers and color in a bit of black eyeball)
|
| Glue a small red pom pom to the very tip of the V for the nose. (or
stick on a red sticker)
|
| Let dry.
|
| Optional: Tie a piece of ribbon, wool or string to hang from the
tree
