Pop-Up Monster

There are some monsters that live in
dark slimy caves
and some that hide in dark corners.
This monster lives in a strange place.
This monster lives in a paper cup!

This monster is very easy to make and we're going to show you how (you might need a grown up's help though)

You will need:
You will need:	Paste, pencil & scissors	Crayons	Acrylic paint	A drinking straw	A paper or polystyrene cup	Sticky tape.
And: Thin paper (printer paper), light cardboard (from a cereal box or similar)
Here's what you do: 1. Click on the monster picture --> and print it out. Once you have printed the monster out trace it onto a piece of plain paper. 2. Paste the traced monster onto a piece of light card and wait for it to dry. When it is dry colour the monster in and cut out. 3. Tape the straw, longways, to the back to the monster. 4. Paint your cup with a monstrous pattern and let it dry. 5. Fold your monsters hands along the dotted lines (see picture). 6. Carefully make a hole in the bottom of the cup, just big enough for the straw to fit through, and slide the straw through. 7. Now your monster is finished but be careful who you SCARE with it.
