Step-by-Step Guide
- Take some red playdough and make four small balls. These will be the petals of your poppy flower.
- Put the four red balls together in a group. This is the start of your poppy!
- Now, you squish the red balls gently with your fingers. Press them down to make the poppy flower shape.
- Next, take the green playdough and roll it into a small snake shape. This will be the stem of your poppy.
- Attach the green stem to the bottom of your red poppy flower. Press it gently to make it stick.
- Ta-da! You’ve made a beautiful playdough poppy. Your poppy is like the ones people wear on Remembrance Day.
