Hi, I'm Andreja from Easy Peasy and Fun — and I just wrote a book!
50 paper crafts your kids can actually do themselves
CRAFTS
I designed every project so kids can do it themselves — no fancy supplies, just paper, scissors, and a little imagination.
“If you need easy crafts to keep busy, Andreja delivers with this book!”
📚 As an indie author, your pre-order genuinely helps me — it counts toward first-week sales, which is how new books get noticed. Thank you!
What you need
- 1 black sock
- 1 sock in color for the hat
- rice
- rubber bands (or thread)
- white and orange felt
- ribbons
- glue gun
- felt glue
- markers or paint
- scissors
Start by filling the black sock with rice (you’ll need a nice amount of rice). When you are happy with the amount of rice and the rough shape of the soon to be sock penguin tie a rubber band at the top. We used two rubber bands to make things more secure.
Now take another rubber band and place it just above the middle of the sock, to separate the body and the head. You will probably have to shape the body a little with our hands. Again we used 2 rubber bands just to be on the safe side.
Cut the excess sock. You can secure the top by adding some glue from the glue gun. Cut a white oval shape (measure it against the body to get things right) out of white felt. Glue it on the sock with felt glue (glue gun works well too).
Cut a small beak out of orange felt and glue it onto the head. Draw two black eyes with a black marker.
Add ribbon to make a scarf (glue with glue gun or glue dots – ribbons can be tricky to glue together sometimes, we found out these two glues work the best with ribbons.).
Lastly cut one colorful sock (at the middle). Roll it up a little bit to get the hat shape and place on top of the penguin.
