We had some lovely Autumn crafts delivered from Baker Ross this week and these extremely cute Hedgehog Pom Poms immediately caught Little E's eye.
Each kit includes a hedgehog foam template, card pom pom maker, self-adhesive foam noses, yarns (different colours in each kit), ribbon & wiggle-eyes.
You start by placing pom pom templates either side of the hedgehog. Then you tie on the yarns and loop them around the template over and over until you have no yarn left.
Once you have run out of yarn you slide scissors inside the loop and snip all the way around the yarn. Little E gave this a go. I think her face says it all...
When you have cut all the way around you slide some ribbon in to form a loop, remove the templates and your hedgehog is complete.
Now, this all sounds easy but Little E actually found looping the yarn through the hole and round really tricky. The kit says 5+yrs and that probably explains why she struggled a little as she is only 4. Despite needing a lot of help she loved the outcome and can't wait to give it to her Grandma for her birthday tomorrow.
This pack of 3 kits is only £3.75! Fantastic value. You can order here
This kit was sent for review as part of the Baker Ross Blogger programme but all opinions are my own.

These are really cute. Mine would be far too young, lovely for older children though. #bigfatlinky 12/9/2015 07:20:23 pm
I used to love making yarn pompoms as a kid! The hedgehogs are such a cute idea. I love the photos of her trying to cut them :) #bigfatlinky

These look so cute; I love the look on Little E's face as well - that's some proper work going into that cutting! 15/9/2015 09:54:24 am
That hedgehog look so cute. It does look very simple, though I can see how it might be a little tricky in places. Leave a Reply. |
