Leap Into Spring!

If you're planning a Lifecycles or Rainforest theme then these frogs will surely want to hop into your display!
FROG 1:
1) Take a paper plate and fold it in half.
2) Using a red crayon colour the inside red.
3) Using green paint cover the outside in green.
4) Cut 4 green card rectangles 1" x 7". Concertina the card in inch squares to make bouncy legs.
5) Cut a red card arch for the tongue and glue it slightly off-centre on the inside of the mouth so the tongue sticks out.
6) Cut 2 1" white circles and 2 1cm black circles for the eyes and glue on.
7) Glue / staple the legs 2 on the left and 2 on the right.

Voila! One bouncy frog that can hang from a ceiling / tree bough or be attached to a wall.

FROG 2:
1) Paint the outside of a burger box green.
2) Follow same steps as above for legs and eyes.
3) For a bit of fun give the lady frogs red lips. Poke short pieces of black pipe-cleaners through the box and curl at the end for eye-lashes.
4) Gentlemen frogs can add a bow tie to the box to jazz them up.

Hope you have a 'hopping' good time making these!
