Steps:

Step 1:  Cut out the milk jug to result in a shape of an elephant. The handle can be the trunk and make sure you cut the shape of the elephant’s legs (see picture). Ask a grownup for help when cutting the jug. Don’t forget the tail to!!

   

Step 2: Now start sticking the colourful tissue paper on the elephant shape, then add the eyes.

 

Step 3: Draw two ears shape and cut it out, then stick the colourful tissue paper on them.

 

Step 4: Stick the ears on the elephant’s head. Now your Elmer is ready and you can play with it or read a story and make it come alive.
