I love reusing things for a fun project. This food container
works wonderfully to make this turtle 3 dimensional as well as
helps teach children how the shell is hard and serves as
protection for turtles. Instead of using green paint I use
yellow and blue so that we have a quick lesson about color
mixing added in. 1. Gather your materials. You will need a piece
of green construction paper,markers, scissors, glue, yellow and
blue paint, a paint brush , googly eyes and a washed out
applesauce container. 2. Start by laying the container on your
paper and drawing the outline of a turtle. 3. Hand the paper to
your child and have them color it any way they wish. 4. Pour a
small amount of blue and yellow paint into the container. 6. Cut
out the turtle while your child is mixing the paint. 7. Glue the
container to the paper turtle. 8. Glue the googly eyes on. Let
dry.
