Clay Pot Cow
This cute cow is a fun and easy craft project for kids. The project needs some time for the paint and glue to dry, but otherwise is completed within an afternoon. Parents may wish to help out and glue the head to the clay pot using hot glue. This will speed the drying process of the glue.

Instructions:
1. Paint the clay pot and styrofoam ball white and let them dry. Once the clay pot is dry, paint black spots over it to resemble a cow‘s coat and again let the paint dry.
2. Print the patterns to the size needed and cut them out of the appropriate colored paper.
3. Glue the head to the pot. Cut 2 slits in the top of the head for the ears and 2 slits for the horns. Place a small amount of glue on the ears and horns and insert them in the slits.
4. Draw 2 nostrils and a mouth on the pink face piece either with black marker or dimensional paint. Glue onto cow’s face.
5. Draw or paint the cow 2 eyes.
6. When head/body glue is dry, tie a red bow with a cow bell around the neck and make a pretty bow.
