C is for Crab {Craft}
You'll have to turn your computer sideways if you want to see the 'C' correctly, but I figured you all were smart enough to see the 'C', right?
I'm betting you all are going to think I have an obsession with googly eyes...and it's true. I do. There's just something about those wiggly things that make a craft so.much.cuter.
What You'll Need:
- Red foam sheet or construction paper
- Scissors
- Pen {to trace letter}
- Googly eyes
- Glue
How to make the 'C' Crab:
- Trace and cut an uppercase 'C' out of the foam sheet or construction paper. I used a foam sheet that was about 4" x 5" in size.
- Cut out two 'claws' for your crab. I didn't use a pattern, just freehanded it.
- Cut out four long, skinny rectangles to use as 'arms' and eye extenders for the crab.
- Glue the legs and eye extenders onto the back of the letter 'C'.
- Flip the crab over and add the eyes and the claws.

I love your blog. I feel strongly that I want to home school my boys, though my oldest is only 2. There are so many helpful links on your blog. I feel a little overwhelmed as to what curriculum to use or method to do. I've got time. Thanks again.

where are you hiding all of your preschool resources? I'm really having a hard time gathering everything together and figuring out a good system of us...
