Healthy Halloween Snack Featuring Forky
All you need are red pipe cleaners, mozzarella string cheese sticks, a blue permanent ink marker, a red permanent ink marker, adhesive googly eyes,a home printer or printing service to print out our free printable tag, scissors, and a hole punch.
How To Create Forky The String Cheese Snack
First, download the tag HERE. Next, cut the tags out and let your child sign their name on each tag. Be sure to let them write their name before you string each tag onto the pipe cleaner. It’s much easier that way! After you string the tag on, twist the red pipe cleaner around the cheese and bend it on the ends to create the fingers like in the photo.
Be sure you position the cheese stick where the printing is on the underneath side, so you have the unprinted white side to work with for the front of your Forky character. The marker will be easy to see that way.
Next, stick on two sizes of googly eyes, making sure the larger googly eye is on your left side (Forky’s right). Then, draw the mouth in blue and the eyebrow in red just like in the photo. What fun!
