Total Time Needed: 1 Hour
Turn a frown upside down by transforming an ordinary washcloth into a cuddly toy bunny.
Materials
Washcloth (a baby washcloth works especially well)
Rubber band
Glue
Googly eyes
Small pom-pom
Large pom-pom
Instructions
First, place the washcloth on a tabletop and evenly roll two diagonally opposite corners toward the middle. Fold the rolled washcloth in half.
Fold the cloth in half a second time and wrap the rubber band around the second fold to form the bunny's head. Gently pull apart the rolled ends that extend above the rubber band so that they resemble rabbit ears.
Next, glue the googly eyes onto the face and the small pom-pom in place for a nose. Glue the large pom-pom onto the back of the original fold to serve as a cottony tail, and the bunny is finished.
Tips:
Designed with a hole in its center, the bunny slips onto a fingertip for an instant puppet show, or you can quickly pop it over an ice cube to help soothe an unexpected bump or scratch.
