Milk Carton Animals

My two-year old is in a barn animal phase. It's super cute--all his animal noises and the pointing out of each cow and pig he sees everywhere we go (it's surprising how often we see them!) I wanted to make an easy animal craft with him that he would enjoy.

Step-by-step tutorial

  • Step 1

    We started off by wrapping our milk cartons with construction paper and tape. I helped Grayson with this. He enjoyed placing the tape for me.

  • Step 2

    Once covered, he added some googly eyes and felt ears using glue. Our pig was just about done.

  • Step 3

    All he needed was a cute little curly (pipe cleaner) tail that Grayson attached easily with a piece of tape.

  • Final result!

    The fun animal play began. Grayson thought this pig could fly for some reason and ran from room to room oinking, snorting, and flying his pig through the air.
