20 paper drinking straws, each cut to 5 cm by an adult
1 glue stick
2 sheets red or green scrap paper for the apples
Safety scissors
Step by Step
Fold the brown paper in half widthways, then fold the bottom edge up six centimetres to form a deep pocket. Fold the side edges in one centimetre each and glue them down. Press firmly and hold for thirty seconds.
Run a line of glue along the top edge of the front panel and press the pre-cut straw pieces into it at slight outward angles. Twenty straws across the top makes a convincing hedgehog back.
Cut five-centimetre apple shapes from the scrap paper and feed them into the pocket to play.
