Articulated Beasts and Where the Wild Things Are Round-Up.

We get asked about “Where the Wild Things Are” Crafts a lot and it just so happens that we managed a really quick and easy one!!! But before we get going I thought I would pop in a few links to our other beastly crafts – all in one place and all that!

Step 3: Then came the moment of deep concentration. I poked a hole wherever they needed them, using the sharp end of a pair of scissors. We tried a punch but the whole was too big… the scissors worked better and squeezing the pins through the card made the arms and legs swing better.
