It’s All About The Hair

I just can’t with these craft stick people. My daughters and I are obsessed! Their crazy hair is our favorite part. We have been trying out different hairstyles on them all day. Our favorite so far is rainbow hair. Besides being adorable and fun to play with, they are also educational. You can use them to review so many skills. We are going to review odd and even numbers with our new friends, but there are so many other possibilities. You can review numbers, colors, patterns, addition, and subtraction, just to name a few. If you’d like to make these craft stick dolls too, scroll down.

What You’ll Need

People Craft Sticks

Markers

Pasta

Food Coloring

Vinegar

Zip lock bag

Measuring cup

How To:

  1. Pour two cups of pasta into a zip lock bag, add 1/4 cup or vinegar, and several drops food coloring and shake the bag until it is fully mixed in. Let the bag sit for ten minutes and then pour the pasta out onto a paper towel to dry.
  2. While you are waiting for your pasta to dry, you can color in your craft stick people.

That’s it. They are so simple to make and so much fun to play with. My daughters didn’t even mind doing math with their new friends. As long as they got to play with the pasta hair, they were happy as can be.
