Pom Pom Pet

This week at Preschool was pet week.  They even had a pet show on Friday.  The kids brought in their small "caged" animals - guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, frogs, crickets, fish, and even a baby pig & goat.  It was such fun to see that her Kiwi Crate this month also featured pets.  She and I worked on the pom pom pet on Saturday afternoon.
 

 
She carefully did each step.  The U-shaped tool was a great gadget to make the wrapping so easy.


 
She tied a pipe cleaner around the middle and carefully slid it off the U.
  


Then she clipped the loops to create the pompom.  She only did about 1/4 of the cuts since it was a lot of yarn and truthfully quite difficult.
 
 
Then she added goggly eyes, a nose, tail, and feet.  These were all precut and the kit included "glue dots" that we simply had to peel and place on each item before attaching.  Simple!  Brilliant! Adorable!
