Paint the cardboard plate blue and the large polystyrene half-ball with green paint.
Allow to dry for about 30 to 45 minutes.

Draw the frog's eyes and nostrils with a black marker.
Step 3
Cut a strip of red paper measuring about 1.5 x 15 cm and then wrap it around a pencil to create the frog's tongue.
Step 4
