Frog crafts are great for children, especially when they are learning about frogs. Frogs are small animals belonging to a group called vertebrates (animals with backbones) known as amphibians. They live mostly on land but they need to be near water for breeding.
Frogs have amazing sense of hearing. They also have powerful back legs and webbed feet that help them jump great distances and also swim. Frogs drink water through their skin, not their mouths. They also has very good eyesight, they can see in almost every directions.
You can make a frog craft from basically any type of materials. For example, a pom pom frog, felt frog or a paper plate frog. You can also use a frog theme to make a door hanger, photo frame or even plant stake for the garden.
It's a long leap, but nevertheless here's a likeness of a frog to be made from shells. An open shell, with height and width about 2" to 3", with plain back or corrugated fan-like back, hinge side down, is decorated with 2 shells (tiny open ones) for eyes, 2 a bit larger for front feet, and a for rear feet. The rear feet are attached with glue to the bottom of the shell, and the front feet are glued to the ends of a pipe cleaner which is bent into a square arch, the latter being glued to the under surface of the shell.
Here is a cute craft idea. How about making a brown paper bag frog puppet. Then we will make a fly to put on his tongue. Start off with a brown paper lunch bag, and turn it so it looks like picture A above. Then color the bag green ...whether you do it with paint, markers or crayons, is up to you. Cut out 2 white circle eyes and paste on the top of the bag for eyes. Draw black pupils in the eyes...also black dots for nostrils. Roll a strip of red paper for the tongue. Glue it to the inside of mouth...as seen in picture B. Cut out 2 green half circles and paste them to top of eyes for lids. Cut out 2 green hands and glue the to bag...as seen in picture C above. To make a fly, cut out a small black circle...and then glue 2 small white circles on them for eyes. Cut out white wings and glue to fly. See picture 1, 2, and 3 to see how to make the fly. Glue the fly to frog's tongue.
