School Days Crafts for Kids

The schools are back and we are all into full swing of school runs, packed lunches and homework. We have been thinking about crafts we could use for school and with some inspiration from Toy Story 4, have you seen it? We came up with our wee friend Spoonie. Why not have a go at this crafts we have created as part of this month’s theme for Tots 100 #BostickBlogger craft.

We had some crescent moon shaped sticky parts that we used as the mouth, but you could use anything.

Snap the lolly stick, please be careful. An adult would be my preference here. Add a chunk of blu tack to the bottom of the spoon to allow it to stand and put in the two ends of the lolly sticks.
