Modeling balls are great material for creativity. Making toys out of these long latex sausages with your kids can be a great time. And not so much is required for this: the actual balloons, a pump and a cheerful mood.
It is necessary
- - pump;
- - latex balloons for modeling;
- - markers.
Instructions
Step 1
The modeling balls should stretch well and not break when twisted. Ultimately depends on their quality, whether you get a toy. Unfortunately, most of what is on the shelves is poorly suited for modeling. If you are not sure about the quality of the sausage balloon, do not inflate it too much. Leave 15 centimeters, not 10, as the professionals recommend.
Step 2
Inflate the balloon, leaving a ponytail at the opposite end from the hole. Tie the neck with a knot. Do not be afraid to pull - it has enough elasticity so as not to tear when tying.
Step 3
Pinch the end with the tie in the armpit and make three sausages, palm-wide, twisting them to one side.
Step 4
Twist the second and third sausages together - you get the hind legs and tail of the animal.
Step 5
Make three more bubbles: one long (this will be the torso) and two short ones (two front legs).
Step 6
Twist the short sections together - now the animal has a tail, body and legs. It remains to make the head.
Step 7
Divide the remaining bubble into four parts. The extreme one will become the nose, the two middle ones will become ears or horns, and the closest to the body will become the neck.
Step 8
How long each segment will be depends on what kind of animal you get in the end: a giraffe, a dog, a deer or an unknown animal. Experiment, and based on this master class, you can create a variety of creatures.
Step 9
If the extreme sausage is divided into three more: long - short - long, the muzzle will take on a more finished look. She will have cheeks and a round nose. The tip should be secured at the base of the head. The ball toy is ready!
