Super stick super heros

My husband steals tongue depressors from the doctor's office, which is really sweet. However, it puts some pressure on crafting time to think of something to do with them. I also worry about the doctor's office banning us.

Luckily, I found some super heroes to make. I traced a triangle for the boys to cut out and had them glue it to the tongue depressor for the super hero cape. They cut out a little strip of construction paper for the mask, which was glued to the depressor. Then they used markers to make the super hero face and decorate the cape.

After the super heroes, we made some ninja turtles. They colored the tongue depressors green. They picked which ninja turtle they wanted to make and cut out the right color construction paper for the mask. It was pasted on the tongue depressor, and a face was made for Leonardo and Raphael.

These super heroes and ninja turtles were quick to make, but they provided hours of fun. The boys flew their super heroes around saving cars from lava. The ninja turtles fought each other.
