This is a very simple and nice project to do with any of the Pancatantras (or other fables). Our Toddler Class did this project with "The Goose and the Golden Egg."

Materials
Crayola Modeling Clay
2 Wiggly Eyes

Directions
1. Make four balls out of your clay. One large, one medium and 2 small sizes. (see picture A below.)
2. With the medium ball draw out one side (gently) until you have a pointed beak.
3. Place the head onto the body (large ball).
4. Take each small ball and flatten it like a pancake. Shape into a wing and place on each side of the bird's body.
5. Add the wiggly eyes.
