Insert head and tail into folded shell and secure in place. Insert folded ends of legs into slits. The ridges on the legs will keep them in place. Bend legs slightly to stand. Turn a very small flowerpot upside down and sponge paint.
Any color looks cute.
Cut head shape out of green sponges, plus 4 legs and a tail. With marker, draw eyes on head. Glue head, legs and tail to flowerpot. The head, legs, and tail are glued to the edges of the pot opening. Have kids rub entire paper with the sides of green and brown crayons so the tread pattern is transformed to the paper.
