Instructions

  • Make your play dough using our easy homemade play dough recipe or buy play dough in red and blue. 
  • Create a spork from the art board by tracing a large salad fork onto the board. Cut out the shape with scissors. 
  • Shape a medium piece of the white playdough into a ball. Push the playdough ball into the bottom handle of the spork. 
  • Make one of Forky's arms by wrapping one red pipe cleaner around the spork and twisting in the middle. Repeat for the other side. 
  • Place a glue dot behind the large googly eye and the medium googly eye and secure onto the foam spork head.
  • Pull apart a small amount of the red playdough and roll into a pencil thin shape. Place at the top of Forky’s head for his eyebrow.
  • Pull apart a small amount of the blue playdough and roll into a pencil thin shape. Shape this piece into a mouth and place on Forky below the googly eyes. 
  • Take a wide popsicle stick and cut in half. At the bottom of one of the halves, draw a small rainbow with magic markers using red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple.  
  • Stick the half popsicle sticks into the bottom of the white play dough for Forky's feet.
