03May09

If you are around kids a lot you know how amused they are by the simplest things. Instead of going and buy new toys and dolls try giving the kids in your life a rock. Yes, it sounds strange but they will love it. A simple rock can be transformed into a best friend or pet in no time at all.

What you need:

• A smooth round or oval rock
• Acrylic craft paint in desired colors
• Wiggle eyes
• Black sharpie marker
• Craft glue

(1)Wash and dry your rock. (2) Chose an animal or creature you want to make. (3) Paint the rock in desired color. You might have to do more then one coat of paint. (4) Get creative and paint designs on your rock. (5) Glue on wiggle eyes.

Now you have a pet that will never run away from home. Pet rocks can be fun for kids. After they have the rock help them to make the pet rock a home.
