New Club Penguin Arts and Craft Fun – Paper-Mache!

There is a new arts and craft activity which Club Penguin made. It it called “Paper-Mache”. Of course, most of us know what paper-mache is because of the activities at clubs or school but here is how to do the paper-mache in Club Penguin’s style.

What you need:

• Two balloons.
• Dry pebbles, rice beans, corn or other seeds.
• Cardboard tubes.
• Masking tape.
• Glue
• Scissors.
• Paint or color pens to decorate.
• A pot
• Strips of all newspaper.
• Two cups of all-purpose flour.
• Four cups of cold water.

Directions:

• Blow up the balloons to the size you want your maracas to be.
• Tape the cardboard tubes to the base of the balloons.
• Tear the old newspaper into strips of about 2 centimeters wide.
• To make the paper-mache, mix the flour and cold water in a pot.
• Dip the newspaper strips in the paste and use fingers to slide off the excess.
• Place the strips around the balloons and tube, leaving one tiny opening. You’ll need to build up several layers.
• Leave the paper-mache to dry overnight.
• When it is completely dry, pop the balloons and add beans/pebbles/rice through the opening.
• Use the masking tape to seal it off.
• Use your imagination and decorate it with paints or pens.
• Get you friends together and make some noise!

This activity may take about one hour but its worth a shot. The best time to do that activity is when you are bored and have nothing to do because this will make time fly by quickly.
