Newspaper Snakes: Applying Tongue

Video Transcript

"So now our snake is ready for its pipe cleaner tongue. You want to wait until the snake is really dry to do this part but we'll wing it and see if we can get the tongue to stay. If you've got a pipe cleaner you can choose any color. I thought pink would make a nice tongue and we're going to cut it in half and use regular scissors for that and what we are going to do is we are shape this tongue so that we can make that snake divided snake tongue, something like this. What we are going to do is you can do it a couple different ways, you can push that tongue all the way in and try to catch it like that but it's not ready sturdy so one thing I like to do and you can wait until it is dry if that is easier, is to take a staple and actually stable it in way back here so you don't want to effect the edge of the face but you want to catch it further back like up along behind the eyes and closer to the neck."
