Clown Shoes
Clown around in these clunky shoes! Make a circus costume to match. Call your friends for a parade!
1. Place two empty recycled tissue boxes side by side, with the openings in the middle, facing each other. Use Crayola® Scissors to enlarge the opening at one end, where your heel will go. Punch several holes around the front openings.
2. Cover a table with recycled newspaper. Cover your Clown Shoes with Crayola Washable Kid's Paint and Paint Brushes. Create happy designs with bright colors. Dry.
3. Outline your designs with Crayola Glitter Glue. Dry.
4. Lace ribbons through the holes. Tie them at the front so your shoes fit better.
5. Spiff up your Clown Shoes with pompoms. Decorate six tissues with Crayola Washable Markers. Lay three tissues on top of each other. Form your hand into a loose fist. Push the center of the tissues between your thumb and forefinger with a finger on your other hand. Squeeze the tissue stem. Tie with ribbon. Repeat to make another pompom.
6. Fluff your pompoms by carefully separating the layers of tissue. Use Crayola School Glue to attach them to the front of your Clown Shoes. Dry.
7. For even more fun, dress up in silly clothes or make a clown suit. Walk carefully when you play circus or have a parade with your Clown Shoes!
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.
Costumes & Masks—
CAUTION: When children wear hand-crafted costumes and masks, make sure the crafts do not obstruct the child’s vision, hearing, or impede movement. Do not use feathers, fabric, or raffia on wearable costumes and masks because these items do not pass costume flammability tests. Wearable masks are those held in place on the face with elastic, yarn, or other materials. Keep away from open flames.
Glitter Glue—
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. Not for use on skin.
Crayola Washable Paints—Not for use as body/face paint.
Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
String-Like Materials—Includes string, raffia, lacing, yarn, ribbon, and other similar material. Children 3 years and younger should not be given any string-like material that is longer than 12 inches. Close adult supervision is essential whenever children use string-like material. When crafts are to be worn around the necks of children 8 years and younger, attach the ends of the “string-like material” with clear adhesive tape, which allows easy release of the bond if the craft becomes entangled or caught on equipment. For children older than 8 years, the ends of the “string-like material” may be tied and knotted.
