This is a fun way to see snakes.
Instructions:
Set-up:
We recommend using a table cover such as the one in our video during all our crafts. This will protect your workspace. You can get this type of table cover in the party section of most department stores for a couple dollars.
Making your snake chain:
Cut your construction paper into one-inch strips as long as the paper.
Cut the number of strips you need for the length of snake you want.
Put a dab of glue on one side of the strip.
Bring the other side of the strip to the glue to make a circle.
Continue by interlocking your circles until your snake is the length you want.
Making your snake’s head:
Cut a triangle with rounded edges
Cut a small rectangle for the tongue
Cut the small rectangle to look like a “Y” on one end to be a forked tongue
Glue the tongue to the back of the rounded triangle
Glue googly eyes to the front side of the triangle
Glue the triangle to finished chain
Personalizing your snake:
For more fun use two or more color of construction paper
Add stickers or any other fun craft decorations.
Clean up:
Clean up any mess from making your snake chain.
Wipe down and remove your table cover.
