Steps:
- Draw a turtle on the construction paper
- Decorate the turtle and cut out shape
- Make a 1 inch cut on both sides of the turtle. Do not cut through the turtle
- Cut out the middle on your cardboard.
- Wrap the yarn around the cardboard about 50+ times, then cut the yarn strand.
- Cut off a large piece of yarn, tie around the middle of wrapped yarn stands as tight as possible. Then, cut the loops on both sides of the wrapped yarn to make your pom pom.
- Wrap your pom pom around your turtle, with the long yarn stands going into both slits on the slides, tying underneath. Cut off the excess string.
