Step 1
Ask your teacher to help you size the headband to fit your head. Cut off the excess and glue the ends together.
Step 2
Accordion-fold the construction paper strips to make arms (octopus), tentacles (jellyfish), or legs (spider). Glue the strips around the headband.
Step 3
Cut paper scraps to make facial features; glue them to the circle. Then glue the circle to the front center of the headband.
Adult supervision is recommended when children use scissors.
