Indian Tepee


What you need 4 drinking straws

Cardboard for base

Scissors
Email me for a template provided. Colour in as desired. Cut out. Cut out square base on card; punch a hole on each corner,this provides support for straws. Cut straws to 13.5cm in size.Place the straw one at a time into holes, when done jointhem in the middle, use a peg to hold them togetherwhile you tie string around the top. Place sticky tapeon the bottom to hold the straws sturdy.Then fold the tent on lines then around the tepee.

Mushrooms


How to make mushrooms
What you needAluminium foilPlastic eggs the ones you use for Easter huntsPaint and paint brush
These are so easy to make and look so effective. My children loved making these. Slowly their fairygarden is coming together.
Divide the plastic eggs into two halves (You can make twomushrooms from one egg).Wrap aluminium foil around the half egg.Roll aluminium foil into a sausage this will be used for the stem,I made mine slightly longer; this allowed me to push the end intothe bottom of the egg, by doing this I did not need glue to attach.You may need a little more tin foil; squash it into the bottom(inside) of half egg to hold the stem all into place.Paint as desired.
