It’s handicraft time.

We are going to be Olympic Champions.

(Yes I know Olympic has ended some time ago, but never too late to make their own medals.)

You will need All of these.

Cardboard.

Marker.

Round Container.

Scissors.

Paint.

Paint Brush.

Ribbon.

Scotch Tape.

1st -Put the cardboard on the table.

Use the base of the round container as a guide.

Use the marker to draw 3 circles on the cardboard.

Hold down the round container well so that it doesn’t ‘run’.

This needs some skill, but I think Binbin did quite well.

The blue shirt is Binbin.

Then cut out all the 3 circles.

You will need stronger scissors because cutting cardboard is more difficult than cutting paper.

If you really cannot do it.

Get Mommy or Daddy to help.

Their hand and finger muscles are more developed.

Paint each circle with different colours.

We chose yellow for 1st.

Then pink for 2nd.

And blue for 3rd.

You can choose any colour you like.

But remember try not to choose dark colours, ‘cos it would be hard to see the words when it’s written on it.

Write ‘1st’, ‘2nd’ and ‘3rd’ separately on the 3 circles.

Make sure that the marker you use is of good quality.

Not many markers can write on paint.

Try to write the words in the middle of the circle.

This is the time to ‘test’ your ‘estimation-judgment’.

Then grab the roll of ribbons.

Mommy loves to wrap presents and do handicrafts.

So she has lots of ribbons and stuff.

We are lucky to be able to get Gold ribbon for our medals.

Which make it look really nice as it reflects the light.

It glows.

*smile*

Unroll the ribbon over your neck to measure the length. Stop around the tummy area, so that the loop is long enough to go through the head.

Turn the circle over.

Stick the ribbon onto the circle.

TAKE NOTE:

Make sure that the word (i.e. 1st/2nd/3rd) should be facing ‘upwards’ when its hung on the neck,before sticking the ribbon down.

If you stick it down blindly, then you may be hanging the medal with the words upside-down. *laugh*

And here are the winners!
