Boogie Monster - Kids Craft

Boogie Monster

                          Boogie Monsters


Ages preschooler
Total Time 1 hour

These zany desktop dancers have the "cents" to stand on their own two feet.

What you'll need

  • Tacky glue
  • 3 (12-inch) pipe cleaners
  • 2 medium pom-poms (ours were 1 1/2 inches in diameter)
  • 2 googly eyes
  • Felt
  • Tiny pom-pom
  • Wooden skewer
  • Feather
  • Poster tack
  • 2 pennies
  • 2 penny-size buttons

How to make it

  1. Glue a 7-inch length of pipe cleaner between the pom-poms for arms. Let the glue dry.


  2. For legs, fold a 9-inch pipe cleaner length in half and glue the fold to the bottom of the lower pom-pom.


  3. Attach each googly eye to a small felt circle, then glue the eyes, felt ears, and a tiny pom-pom nose to the face.


  4. For each horn, coil a 4-inch pipe cleaner length around the skewer, then glue the horn onto the head. Fold the ends of each arm to form hands. Glue the feather tail in place.
  5. Step 5 - Boogie Monsters


    Add a foot to each leg by using a small ball of poster tack to sandwich each end between a button and a penny, as shown.
