Shapes Turtle

One of D's favorite things right now is turtles, especially Sea Turtles. I searched around and saw an idea for a "Shapes Turtle". This is my version.


You will need:

Scissors
Yellow Paper
2 Shades Green Paper
Other Paper (for background)
Glue
Googly-eyes (optional)


Start by cutting out all the needed shapes. For each turtle you will need: 1 large green circle, 6-8 green triangles, 4 yellow semi-circles or ovals, 1 larger yellow semi-circle, 1 yellow triangle.


Start by helping your child glue on the feet, tails, and head to the backside of the shell. Once its all assembled flip it over and glue the whole turtle to the background paper. Now let your child decorate the turtles shell with the green triangles. Add googly eyes or draw them on the head. Ta-da!
