·        Toothpicks.

·        Glue.

·        Knife or scissors (for use by parent only!).

Hello, narwhal! Or are you a hummingbird…?

I Wonder

·        Will my animal be real or imaginary?

·        Will my family be able to guess what animal I made?

·        What else could I make out of food?
