We had quite a bit of cardboard so we decided to do a cardboard art project! We found this awesome idea online to do kitties! Who doesn't love kitties? Here are the results of some of the kiddos cats.
Do you have some cardboard lying around and want to do a an art project? Here are the instructions for how to make cardboard cats!
MATERIALS
Corrugated cardboard, 3.5″ x 7″ rectangles, cut to kitten shapes shown
Scissors
Black Sharpie markers
White Sharpie paint marker
Crayons
Yarn
Wire or pipe cleaners
DIRECTIONS
PREP: I pre-cut kitten shapes shown as it takes adult scissors to cut through the corrugated cardboard.
Students start by drawing the face with black marker. White markers are used to fill in the eyes.
The entire cat is rubbed with a peeled crayon for added color.
A notch is cut on the neck with scissors. One end of a 7 yard or so piece of yarn is tucked and wrapped around, taking care to go under the middle notch when it is reached.
Holes are punched in the cheeks with a pencil and wires or pipe cleaners stuck in for whiskers.
