CRAFT PROJECT
Climbing Critters
This is an old time folk toy that any child is sure to enjoy. Just tug on one side and then the other to make the monkey (or bird) climb up the cord.
General Instructions
Materials:
1" wood stock (or quality plywood)
piece of 1 X 2
drapery cord (or equivalent)
acrylic paint
Print out one or both of the templates provided (see links below). Trace the pattern onto a piece of 1" wood stock (or quality grade plywood) and then cut the shapes with a band or scroll saw.
Drill holes in arms (or wings) to receive drapery cord. The most important part of this project is the 45 degree angle at which the holes are drilled (dotted lines on illustrations). If the holes are not drilled at this angle, the monkey (or bird) will not "climb".
Once the holes are drilled, sand and then detail the piece with acrylic paint.
