Penguin Beanie
You decide! Your penguin beanie can made from foam for durability or card stock for economy.

You need:

• Black, White, and Goldenrod Craft Foam or
  Black, White and Goldenrod Card Sock
• Tacky Glue and Clothespins or Glue Dots
• Two 35mm Wiggle Eyes
• Scissors
• Ruler and Pencil
• Black Permanent Marker

Instructions:

Measure around child's head. Use black craft foam  or card stock to make a 2" band that is 2" bigger than child's head measurement. Glue into circle. Using clothespins to hold until dry if using tacky glue. Glue dots will stick right away

Cut black strips measuring 2" x 12" (11" if making your project from card stock). Glue a strip to the inside of the band attaching both ends, each on an opposite side. Glue another strip crossing over the strip already glued and one more each between each of those. See picture above.

Cut a 8" half circle out of white craft foam or card stock. Tracing around a small plate will make it easier. Glue to the front of your beanie for penguin face. Glue on wiggle eyes. Cut a triangle out of goldenrod foam or card stock for beak. Glue to face. Draw on nostrils.
