As the saying goes "It's not how many toys you have, it's how much you play with the ones you have that help children grow & learn." In that spirit, we decided to create a toy-craft rocking elephant from a single paper-plate, creating a rocking motion toy for our tot to play with. Talk about achieving two objectives with a single effort - teach them to be creative and get them a toy for playing with later.
So, next time you are wondering about a new toy for your tot, think to make vs buy.
Happy toy-crafting!
This is an easy elephant craft for preschool and kindergarten kids. Also perfect for an animal theme unit or a zoo theme unit at school.
