Womble Sock Puppet
Follow these instruions to make your own Womble

Sock Puppet! (You may need an adult to help)
1. Start by finding an old sock. Put the sock on your hand. Tuck the toe part inside between your
thumb and four fingers, which will leave a mouth-like opening that you can control by opening and
closing your hand.
2. Use a piece of chalk or marker pen to make small dots where you want facial features to be.
3. Remove the sock puppet from your hand and you can begin to assemble your puppet using different
craft materials and white craft glue.
Notes:
Make sure all glue dries thoroughly before using the Womble sock puppet.
Buttons and beads will hold better, if sewn on with a needle and thread.
Yarn and pipe cleaners can be threaded through small holes and knotted on the inside to stay in place.
Some ideas to create particular features:

EYES: buttons, beads, paper, marker pens, pasta.
EARS: peanuts, baby socks (for long ears), felt triangles or circles, pasta.
NOSE: buttons, beads, peanuts, styrofoam balls, jingle bells, pom-poms, pasta.
MOUTH: line with felt, draw on with marker pen, pasta.
ACCESSORIES: strung beads for necklaces or earrings, upside down cups for
hats, felt or scraps of material for shirts, ties and collars.
Madame Cholet,s Fairy Cakes

Why not make your own fairy cakes, just like Madame
Cholet? This yummy recipe will make 24 mini cakes.
(Ask an adult to help!)
Ingredients:
125g softened butter

125g caster sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
125g self-raising flour

2 tbsp milk
125g icing sugar
2-3 tsp of food colouring
Instruions:
1. Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas mark 5. Butter your cake tin or place paper cases in the holes.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy. You can use an
electric whisk or a wooden spoon to do this.
3. Add the beaten eggs, a little at a time, whisking to mix. Then beat in
the vanilla extract.
4. Sift in half of the flour and fold into the mixture. Add the
milk and the rest of the flour and fold until well combined.
5. Spoon the mixture into your cake tin or paper cases and bake
for 12 minutes or until it has risen and is golden on top. Allow to
cool for 10 minutes on a rack before removing from the tin.
6. Mix some icing sugar and water in a bowl. Once the cakes
have cooled, add the icing mixture to the top of the fairy cakes.
Use your favourite food colouring for extra yummy-ness!
