Equipment

Materials 

Instructions 

  • First, let’s make our penguin’s body. To do this, draw a round, apple-like shape on a piece of paper (as shown) and cut it out.
  • Next, fold a piece of orange paper in half and draw a triangular beak shape. Cut it out.
  • Let’s make the wings. Draw them on your black construction paper and cut them out.
  • Next are the eyes and cheeks. These will be drawn directly onto your penguin with your black and pink markers.
  • Now, grab your orange beak and glue it onto your penguin’s face. It should be placed underneath the eyes and between the cheeks.
  • Now, use your craft knife to cut the bottom/base out of the cup completely.
  • Next, take your balloon and tie a knot at the end. Cut off the rounded end.
  • Turn the cup upside down and add double-sided tape in a few places around the rim. This will be to add extra support for your balloon.
  • Stretch the balloon over the rim of the base. It should stay in place.
  • Now, use your glue to attach your penguin body to the cup.
  • Glue the wings on either side of the cup.
  • Finally, add your pom poms into the cup. Your penguin popper is ready!
    To use it, pull back the knot of the balloon and shoot the pom poms out. Have fun!
