Crocodile Crayon Drop Game
Your young party-planners prepare this crayon-eating crocodile a day or two ahead. This updated version of Drop the Clothespin game is a sure hit!
1. Ask an adult to cut off the top of a quart milk carton with Crayola® Scissors, and to cut a long triangle from two opposite sides of the carton to look like a crocodile's mouth.
2. Cut green construction paper to cover the entire carton. Use Crayola Construction Paper Crayons or Crayola Metallic FX Crayons to design the crocodile's head. Attach with Crayola School Glue.
3. Design big crocodile eyes with crayons. Cut and glue them near the base of the carton. Cut pointed teeth from construction paper and glue to the inside of the crocodile's mouth.
4. Cut out the rest of the crocodile's body from construction paper. Design a bumpy back and scaly legs with crayons. Glue the carton onto the body so the crocodile appears to be looking up at you with its wide-open mouth. Dry.
5. To play the game, stand above the crocodile. Try to drop crayons into the crocodile's mouth.
