How to Make a BooBoo Bunny

How can a kid continue to sob after you press a cute ice-filled boo-boo bunny on a scrape? Making these little ice-bearing terrycloth creatures only takes a few creative folds. Use washcloths in pastel colors for baby showers or make them in wilder neon shades for older children.

Things You'll Need

• Wash cloth
• Rubber band
• Ribbon
• 1 small pom pom
• 1 large pom pom
• Hot glue

Instructions

1. Fold a washcloth in half so that it looks like a triangle.

2. Roll it up. Start from the peak of the triangle and roll inwards to make a line-like shape.

3. Fold the rolled towel in half so that its two pointed edges touch. Leave the points facing you.

4. Push the points back toward the folded end of the towel and, with your fingers, pinch the cloth three-quarters of the way in to form a head. Make sure that a piece of ice could fit into the back loop.

5. Tie the head into place with a rubber band.

6. Embellish your bunny. Glue googly eyes, a small pom pom nose and a large pom pom tail onto the boo-boo bunny. Tie a ribbon around its neck to conceal the rubber band.

Tips & Warnings

• Googly eyes and other small pieces could be a choking hazard for infants.
