Top Tip
To enhance the project, you could also create labels describing each stage of growth. By adding small tags or writing directly on the paper cups, you can clearly identify each phase: Egg, Tadpole, Froglet, and Adult Frog, making it easier to follow the transformation process.
How to Make
Step 1
Take a green paper cup and trim it down to size to create the body of the frog.
Step 2
Use green pipe cleaners to fashion two hind legs, shaping them to resemble a frog’s limbs.
Step 3
Poke two small holes on either side of the cup and insert the legs. Then, create two smaller pipe cleaner pieces for the front limbs and attach them as well.
Step 4
Glue on two googly eyes or draw them yourself.
Step 5
Use a marker to draw a mouth and any other facial details.
Step 6
Cut a piece of bubble wrap and place small black dots in the centre of each bubble to resemble frog eggs. Using reference images, recreate the other stages of the frog’s transformation, including tadpoles, froglets, and adult frogs, using cups and craft materials.
