Materials:
Black Felt
Orange/Red Felt (I couldn't find orange, so red went in its place)
Green or another colored felt for the scarf
Magnet tape
scissors
Directions:
Cut 2 large circles out of the black felt for eyes. I doubled the felt over and cut the two layers simultaneously so that the circles matched.
Cut 8 smaller circles out of the black felt for the buttons and mouth.
Cut a large, 'carrot-shaped' triangle out of the orange/red felt.
Cut 2 long strips out of your scarf felt (green on ours) -leave one the length of the fridge, cut the other in half to become the other pieces of your scarf.
Cut out strips of magnet tape. I cut 3cm pieces and then cut those lengthwise to make skinny strips. Attach the magnet tape to the felt pieces. The Eyes have 4 strips on each, at the edges. The buttons and mouth pieces each have one piece down the middle. The nose has 3 strips. The scarf has 6 strips and the extra scarf pieces (the hanging down bits) each have 3 strips. Total magnet tape strips = 31
This took about half an hour to make from start to finish. I can't wait for my kids to see it in the morning - my husband had a good chuckle over it :)
