Morphing Myths

Why

Make mythological creatures morph before your eyes!

Steps

1. Choose your favorite mythological creature or invent your own. Use Crayola Markers to draw your animal on white paper.

2. Draw more than one copy of your animal. How would you like to change your creature? It’s easy to add wings, claws, fangs, fire, and make other changes.

3. You’re ready to draw your additions. Morph your creature as many times as you like!

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
