Egg Carton Frog Craft

We don't really have a lot of frogs in the city. Darren and I both grew up in Saskatchewan. He was in the rural area. I grew up on the outskirts of a small city. Honestly, I forgot how noisy frogs could be!
Last summer, we stayed on a farm and the frogs kept us up for the first hour or so when we went to sleep. Then some sort of childhood muscle memory kicked in and instead of being annoying, the sound of croaking frogs became incredibily soothing. It may just have been the long day or the fresh air but I think it was the frogs endless, monotonous nighttime serenade that gave us both one of the best sleeps we had all year!
Materials:
- egg carton cups
- green paint
- 2 or more googly eyes
- pink pipe cleaner
- green construction paper
- scissors
- glue
Instructions:
Cut up the egg carton so you only have one egg holder. Paint the outside green to create the base for your frog.
Cut feet out of green construction paper and prepare your googly eyes.
Glue each piece onto the egg carton as desired. Curl one piece of pink pipe cleaner to add a tongue and finish your frog!
