Face of a girl
or a boy
Paint two eyes
with black, the nose with red and lips with pink. For the hair, take black
paint or stick some strands of wool on the top of the forehead with the
help of the glue. To denote a girl's face, tie some strands of wool to
make a plait and stick on both the sides of the face.
Face of a clown
Draw two eyes,
a nose and a smiling face in the shape of a semicircle. (Remember to paint
the nose red!). Cut a cone out of the glazed paper to make a cap and stick
it on top of the head.

Mouse. Let your child suggest some characters from real life.
