There is a new arts and craft activity which Club Penguin made. It it called “Paper-Mache”. Of course, most of us know what paper-mache is because of the activities at clubs or school but here is how to do the paper-mache in Club Penguin’s style.

What you need:

  • Two balloons.
  • Dry pebbles, rice beans, corn or other seeds.
  • Cardboard tubes.
  • Masking tape.
  • Glue
  • Scissors.
  • Paint or color pens to decorate.
  • A pot
  • Strips of all newspaper.
  • Two cups of all-purpose flour.
  • Four cups of cold water.

Directions:

  • Blow up the balloons to the size you want your maracas to be.
  • Tape the cardboard tubes to the base of the balloons.
  • Tear the old newspaper into strips of about 2 centimeters wide.
  • To make the paper-mache, mix the flour and cold water in a pot.
  • Dip the newspaper strips in the paste and use fingers to slide off the excess.
  • Place the strips around the balloons and tube, leaving one tiny opening. You’ll need to build up several layers.
  • Leave the paper-mache to dry overnight.
  • When it is completely dry, pop the balloons and add beans/pebbles/rice through the opening.
  • Use the masking tape to seal it off.
  • Use your imagination and decorate it with paints or pens.
  • Get you friends together and make some noise!

This activity may take about one hour but its worth the time!
