Step 2
Choose to either Paint or use Felt or Foam. If painting, add white glue to the paint to help it stick to the plastic. Paint triangles for hair OR cut felt/foam triangles to top of bucket for the hair.
Step 3
(PAINT OR) Cut out and glue two different sized white ovals and black ovals for eyes. Leave a space between the hair and eyes for stitches.
Step 4
(PAINT OR) Cut out and glue a sideways letter ‘V’ shape (filled in with black). With a permanent maker, draw a black curved line over the eyes.
Step 5
Draw lines over the curved line with a permanent marker. (PAINT OR) glue on white string lines for teeth.

Cut off egg carton cups… One for each bolt. Paint them grey to look like real bolts. Glue bolts on.
