Last week at our summer camp,the theme for the week was; I Love Animals. The teacher that was running the camp was wonderful and I thank her very much. All of her crafts centered around certain books. This is a great way to create lessons. Books are wonderful inspirations for many things.

Her frog is really easy to make. For the project you will need:
a paper plate
4 strips of green paper for legs
2 cotton balls
a red tongue cut out of paper
glue
green paint.
The first thing one has to do is paint the plate green--back and front and allow this to dry.
After the plate is dry, fold it in half. Glue two cotton balls to the top outside half for the eyes. She put two small black circles in the cotton to finish the eye, you can do this, or you can use a marker.

Then glue one edge of the strips of paper to the bottom outside half for the frogs legs. These will dangle down like long legs.

Finally, glue the red tongue inside of the frog sticking out a bit for effect.
Now don't fret if you don't have green paint, or paper--make a frog to your liking. If you think about it, there are many different colored frogs around the world. Only have markers, color your plate with them, have blue paint, make a blue frog, have an artist, make a frog of many different colors.--have fun with it.
Many thanks again to the I Love Animals teacher for allowing me to share this with everyone.

I'll inspire my curious companion, my niece, to play this frog. We do not get to see green frog here, but still there are some frogs. I think she will love it.
