Hip-Hop Frog

Hip-Hop Frog

WHY
Hippity hop! Airbrush a speckled frog with your Color Wonder™ Sprayer, and then bend its legs so it bounces. Jump into no-mess art!
WHERE AND WHEN
My son’s fascination with frogs inspired a party that had everyone happily hopping. Besides making this easy craft, we played Leap Frog, ate gummy insects, and stuck out a lot of tongues."Chad C., father of 5- and 7-year-olds."Folding paper accordion-style adds so much dimension! Children enjoy making these extra-long appendages."Sally K., volunteer crafts aide.
INSTERING INFO
The story “Jim Smiley and His Jumping Frog” helped its author, Mark Twain, gain more widespread fame. It is a funny story about a far-jumping frog named Dan’l Webster and why the frog does not perform well during a contest (check inside the frog’s mouth, Jim Smiley!).

STEPS
1. Draw a frog body on Crayola Color Wonder Paper using a Color Wonder Marker. Extend its front legs on either side of the main body so that the "elbows" are extra long. Add details such as bulging eyes and a wide mouth.
2. On another piece of Color Wonder Paper, draw your frog’s back legs, making the "knees" extra long.
3. Follow the package directions for using your no-mess Color Wonder Sprayer. Spray your frog drawings in real or imaginary colors. Air-dry the paint.
4. Cut out your frog and its legs. Fold the elbow and knee areas accordion-style so your frog looks like it’s jumping. Glue the back legs to the body.
5. Shout "Bing-ga, bing-ga, bing!" or whatever sound your leaping frog makes as it jumps toward a lily pad.

Gather your favorite photographs of a favorite sports team or player—a pro, friend, cousin, or yourself! Enlarge or shrink the photos to any size you like to make your Crayola Cutter Project Kit: #1 Sports Fan poster.
2. Place each photo on the cutting mat of the Crayola Cutter. Follow the package directions. Hold the Cutter at a 90-degree angle to cut out the photos. Be creative! You can cut around the photo and inside! Trim around equipment or players so they stand out. Make interior cuts for uncluttered images.
3. Lay the photos and other mementoes such as awards or programs on your poster. Decide where to add words, backgrounds, and stickers. Use the kit stencils to cut shapes and letters with different colored paper, or create your own cut-out designs!
4. After all backgrounds, shapes, and photos are placed in a poster design you like, use a Crayola Glue Stick to attach everything to the poster.

window . Find a window in your home that can be seen by those coming to visit. Be sure the window is securely closed and locked. Ask a grown-up to help.
2. Use Crayola Window Crayons to draw face-size circles on the window.
3. TIP: To "erase" and redo any Crayola Window Crayon or Window artwork, simply wipe away with a damp paper towel then dry with another paper towel.
4. Add flower petals around each circle using Crayola Window Markers. Use your imagination to make different kinds of petals. Some ideas to try: • Draw lots of wide lines around the circle for a wildflower. • Closely- arranged, wide yellow lines will create image that looks like a sunflower. • Draw circles for a cheery flower. • Long, rounded petals look like a daisy. • To make a pansy, draw a wavy line around the circle. • A circle surrounded by long, narrow hearts makes a "love-ly" flower. • Long square-ended petals have a trendy style.
5. Fill each petal with color using Window Markers or Window Crayons. Tips to try: • Fill in the entire area with broad, solid strokes of marker color. • Dab marker dots in 2 colors. See colors blend to make a third color. • Scribbles look fun and fill in big areas quickly.
6. Remember to gather family members to peek through your Blooming Window Smiles as guests arrive!
