What's better on a hot sunny day than a cool, drippy slice of watermelon...? Try momstown's fun and easy (and not so drippy) W for Watermelon craft, one of our alphabet crafts that takes inspiration from favourite foods.
Inspired by those yummy slices, this is a great craft that helps children practice fine motor skills, scissor skills, and creativity!
What you need:
- Red bingo dabber
- Red crayon
- Scissors
- Scrap green paper
- Glue
- Construction paper (white and black)
First, draw a large W on a sheet of blank paper. Then have children bingo-dab the W to fill it in and get it that juicy red colour!
Then, cut out the W and glue it on the black paper. Use green scrap paper glued on for the rind, and add black beads for the seeds!
