Material preparation:
One-time disposable paper cups (the more paper cups, the longer the color snake will be, the better it will be), the paper jam, the color pen (or the sticky notes of various colors), the wire (or cotton swab ), double-sided tape, ball pen , scissors, pliers.
step:
1. Cover the paper cup with a variety of colors on the outside of the paper cup (if there is no sticky note, you can paint the outer layer of the paper with a colored pen or paint). My son and I chose three kinds of sticky notes of red, yellow and green to decorate the paper cups.
I am helping to crop the green sticky notes.
I am decorating the "Green Cup".

2. Remove one of the decorated colored paper cups, hold the cup with both hands and flatten it, and draw the shape of the snake head. As shown in Figure 3, draw a snake on the white cardboard with a black marker. Eyes, draw a long tongue with a red marker, as shown in Figure 4. Then use a pair of scissors to trim the snake's head, tongue, and eyes, then apply the eye and double-sided tape to the snake's head.

The eyes are stuck with the tongue.
3. Poke a hole with a ballpoint pen at a distance of one centimeter from the bottom of the cup and the top of the cup, and then poke one hole in the cup of the vertical point corresponding to the two holes. In the same way, the other cups are also poked for use.
4. Cut the wire with pliers and the length of the wire with the cotton swab. Then, puncture the elbow with a pliers, as shown in Figure 7, then put the top of the cup with the hole in the bottom and wear it. The other end of the wire is also folded into a bend with pliers.
Tip: If you don't have a cotton thread instead of a cotton swab, the disadvantage is that it will spread out after a long time.


5, all the cups in the same way are worn into a long string, the longer the more fun. The snake head and tongue are shown in Figure 9. After all dressed up, the fun and novel dance color snake will be done.
Tip: All the elbows of the wire you wear must be in a straight line!

Let me study how the colorful snake moves.
When I first used it, I used a cotton swab to wear it. After playing for a long time, I spread it. Today I thought of a good way to wear the wire and then twist the two ends of the wire into a elbow.
Puzzle point: After the completion, I told my son about the characteristics of the snake. The son knows that the snake is a long animal and has a long snake head.
Introduction to the game:
  Holding the tail of the color snake, you shake it a little, the body and head of the snake and the tongue will twist, it is very fun!
