February (week 6) - 'I love ewe' valentines card

Seems as it is lambing season and valentines day, I though that making a sheepy a valentines card that the toddlers could give to a loved one could be an interesting craft combination. Preparation takes about 10 mins.

I LOVE EWE valentines card
To make your 'I love ewe' valentines card you will need:
/ Toilet roll inners
/ PVA glue
/ Thick card for legs, neck and head
/ Stapler
/ Felp tip pens (black or navy)
/ Cotton wool
/ White tissue paper
/ Glitter
/ Heart shaped stickers
I LOVE EWE prep
Steps to make your 'I love ewe' valentines cards are as follows:
1/ Crinkle up the white tissue, then flatten out and roll around the toilet roll inner, staple in place.
2/ Draw and cut out your sheep face, attach to a 'L' shaped piece of card board and then staple to inside of sheep body.
3/ Cut out 2x 1cm think strips of card for the legs. Attach to the under side of the sheep body by stapling in the middle of the strip of card. Fold the legs either side of the staple so the sheep can stand on its own feet.
4/ Write your valentines message on the body of the tissue using the felt tip pen.
5/ Apply some glue to different areas of the body, including the sheep fringe and stick on some cotton wool.
6/ Sprinkle on some glitter and stick on some heart stickers.

There you have it a cute 'I love ewe' valentines day card to give to someone special.
