Reindeer Cup

November 29, 2011 / Filed Under: arts and crafts, Ruby Tuesday, school

Last thursday, Ykaie was asked by her teacher Keo to bring a plastic cup the next day. She said that it was going to be used for an art activity.

I wondered what they were going to do with the plastic cup until I fetched Ykaie from school and saw this cute Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer cup. Inside was a small bag of cheese-flavored popcorn.

Her teacher covered the cup and pre-made the nose, the antlers and the eyes. Ykaie colored the antlers, attached the nose and the eyes and drew the eyelashes. Teacher Keo drew the reindeer’s mouth.

What a great art activity! Just in time for the Christmas Season.
