R E M M U S SPECTACULAR STICKS YOU WILL NEED: Coloured yarn, string, thread Sticks Googly eyes Glue
WHAT TO DO: 1. Collect some sticks - ones that form a "Y" will be handy! 2. Arrange the sticks to form a figure. 3. Use some of the string or yarn to secure the sticks together. 4. Wrap different coloured yarn & thread around to make clothes. 4. Attach eyes with glue.
OR Make a wand by wrapping different yarn around one long straight stick. Wrap in some feathers, leaves, seed pods or long grass at the tip of your wand.
STEAM THINGS UP: Can you design a creature using different shaped sticks? Can you arrange the sticks to make your initial? Go for a walk in the woods - how many different kinds of trees can you see?
