Blue's Clues Sun Visor

Spend the summer with a favorite dog on your head. Sure, it sounds funny, but the foamie visor is just right for keeping the sun's rays at bay.

Watch Blue's Clues every day on Nick Jr.

This craft has plenty of steps kids can do, like tracing, coloring, decorating, and cutting with safety scissors.

You'll need to allow extra time for glue or paint to dry.

Create with us skills involve self-expression, experimentation, and imagination through visual arts (like painting and sculpting), dramatic play, cooking, and dance.

Ages: 3-6

Materials

Blue foam sun visor (from craft store)
Pale blue foam sheet for nose and spots
Red foam sheet for the mouth
White foam sheet for eyes
Black marker
Dark blue foam sheet for ears
Craft glue
Scissors

Tip: Foam visors can be purchased at craft supply stores.

Directions

Step 1: Cut out the shapes
From the pale blue foam sheet, cut out a nose shape and spots for Blue's ears and face. From the red foam sheet, cut out a crescent shape for the mouth. Cut two ovals from the white foam for eyes, and then use the black marker to draw the pupils on the eyes. Cut two big ears from the dark blue foam sheet.
Step 2: Put together and let dry
Glue the mouth to the inside of the visor so that it drops down slightly at the front. Glue the eyes, nose, and mouth to the visor, using this photo as a guide. Add the ears and the spots. Once done, let the visor dry for about one hour.

Tip: To keep the glued pieces from slipping as they dry, hold them in place with clothespins or bag clips.
