Materials
Method
Start with a large sheet of plain paper. I cut a long piece from a roll of IKEA craft paper.
Get an adult to cut a potato in half and cut a shape into each half with a knife. On one half of the potato cut a flowery mane shape. On the other cut a small triangle which will be the lion's face.
Put some yellow paint out on a plate. Dip the mane potato shape into the yellow paint and stamp yellow manes over the plain paper.
Allow to dry then print an orange triangle on top of each of the yellow manes.
When dry, draw lion faces onto the orange triangles using the black pen.
Your lion wrapping paper is now ready. Why not make a matching lion gift tag?
Make a matching lion print on a piece of white card.
Cut around the lion then make a hole in the top with a hole punch.
Tie ribbon through the hole.
