Equipment:

• 4 whole peanuts
• 1 half walnut shell
• 6 acorns
• Wooden Platform (cut a small log into circles 10cm diameter)
• Hot Glue Gun and Glue
• Craft Eyes
• PVA Glue
• Polyurethane
• Brushes

Directions:

Glue all the nuts to the platform with hot glue gun. This can be done by the Cubs using the gun to put a whole lot of glue on the circle and standing the nuts into it. Use the PVA Glue to glue on the Craft eyes. Wait for it to dry completely and polyurethane three coats over the entire craft.

Equipment:

• One half walnut shell
• Black permanent marker pen
• 4 short oval shapes cut from black felt fabric
• 2 long oval shapes cut from black felt fabric
• 2 craft eyes
• Hot Glue Gun and Glue
• PVA Glue
• Polyurethane
• Small paint brush

Directions:

Using the black marker draw a line up the middle of the turtle shell to make a back bone line. From this line draw small circular shapes with the marker pen down both sides of the black line. Lay the four short oval shapes on paper and squirt a little hot glue on each then push the shell onto it. This makes the four legs. Do the same with the head and tail at either end of the shell. Using the PVA Glue, squirt a little onto the longest oval and push the Craft eyes into it. Polyurethane the shell. Don't forget to clean your brushes with brush cleaner!

Equipment:

• One acorn nut
• One acorn "hat" with a little of the stork still on it
• Black felt shapes
• PVA glue
• Black marker pen

Directions:

Using the black marker pen draw the eyes and eyebrows, coloured in circle for the nose and open circle for the mouth. Cut out and stick on a long moustache shape just over the mouth. Stick on a long strand of black felt to make a ponytail at the back of the head. Colour in the "hat" with the black marker pen and stick on with PVA glue.

Equipment:

• A can of gold spray paint
• A Skewer
• Thick rag (towelling is best)
• Key Ring
• One half walnut shell

Directions:

Paint the walnut shell and wait for it to dry (paint inside and outside). Using the skewer and rag poke a hole in the shell. Do this by poking from the inside to the outside so that the point of the skewer goes into the towelling rag to absorb its impact. Wind on the key ring.
