Click on the picture and select print...MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST 33 SHEETS OF PAPER and plenty of black ink in your printer for this activity book!

Materials Needed:

14 - 1 1/16 inch Safety Pins

1 - 2 inch Safety Pin

Seed Beads (see crab picture for colors needed)

Each number column represents a pin; for example, your first pin will have 10 light blue beads on it. Your second pin will have 6 light blue beads, 1 red beaad, and then 3 more light blue beads. When you thread these beaded pins onto your larger pin, start with pin number 1.

Basic Directions

The supply list for this project is pretty simple. All you need are safety pins and seed beads. It is helpful, but not necessary, to have a needle-nose pliers and a small, flat-head screwdriver.

Depending on the pattern you choose, you will usually need between 10 and 14 small safety pins. Open a safety pin, and slip the seed beads onto it. Once all beads are in place, close the safety pin. You may want to use the needle-nose pliers to pinch the end of the safety pin so it will not pop open later. Repeat this step until all the safety pins are beaded.

Now you are ready to put all the beaded pins onto a larger safety pin. Open the large safety pin (the size you need will be stated in the pattern). Use the flat-head screwdriver to slightly pry apart the coils at the end of the large pin.

Slip the loop of the first beaded safety pin onto the large one.

Pull it down to the loop at the base of the large pin. Pull it around the loop and up the back-side of the pin. Repeat this for each beaded safety pin.

Once all your beaded safety pins are on your larger pin, use the pliers and squeeze the loop to close it. You can now pin your new safety pin jewelry onto your shirt, hat, shoelaces, etc.

Create a crawling crab with light and your hands!

Craft Project Directions:

To make a crab hand shadow you will need a light source like a flashlight and a light colored wall. Put the light source on a stand and position yourself between it and the wall. To make the shadow, bend and position your fingers and hands into the shape pictured in front light before the wall.

See if you can make the crab slide back and forth like it would in real life.
