Making Alligator or Crocodile Clips Fridge Magnets With Clothespins Craft Idea for Kids

Crafts Materials Needed

– Clothespin

– Green Paint or Green Sharpie Marker

– Googly Eye

– Magnet

– Glue

– White Paper or Paper Plate or Cup for Alligator’s Teeth

Step 1

Paint the Paper Clip Green and Let Dry. If you don’t have paint or you are not allowed to use paint, you can use a green marker, preferably  a permanent marker, such as a Sharpie marker.

Step 2 – Pick The Better Option

If you put the teeth and eye on the smaller end (the end that opens), you can use it as a clip that looks like the alligator is biting on your memos / notes.

However, putting the eyes and mouth on the larger end looks better (see below). So it is up to you.

Either way, cut out zig-zags for teeth and use them as teeth and glue them on the end you choose. And put a big googly eye on the top for the eye.

Step 3

 

Glue magnets on the opposite side of the clothespin so that you can stick it to the fridge.

End Result

This is what your finished Alligator / Crocodile Fridge Magnet clip looks like. I hope that you had fun.
