I am helping with Megan's kindergarten class party this week and I volunteered to make 2 carnival themed games. The first is an elephant peanut toss game and the second is a fish pond. I found a cute elephant picture online and then added some banners above and beneath it and some cute circus clothing.
Then I divided the picture into four parts and copied those parts onto this piece of cardboard. I know it is hard to see.
Finally, I painted in all the designs and outlined them with black sharpe. Holly and Megan both hleped me with the painting. Total cost=nothing. I had the cardboard and borrowed some craft paint from my mom. Here Megan is attempting to throw a peanut to the elephants trunk.
I used the rest of the cardboard box to make this fish tank. I covered it with blue tissue paper from my gift wrap box and then attached these fish I bought a few years ago. The fishing lines were made from sticks out of our backyard, string and a clothespin at the end.
I can't wait for the party!

Well done on those games. You are an artist I can tell by how nice they look! You should bring them home and use them for birthdays and ward activities. Very nice and very fun!
