Activity: Golf Ball Characters
You can turn golf balls into a wide variety of characters, either as creative toys for your kids or as cute shelf and desk decorations!
To complete this project, you’ll just need a golf ball for each character you want to create to create, paint, glue, and googly eyes.
You might also want to have some cardboard or craft foam on hand, so you can add things like fins to fish if you’d like.
To begin, grab a golf ball and choose your base color — yellow for a chicken, grey for an elephant, pink for a pig, etc. Paint the entire golf ball with that color.
Once it dries, you can add glue on the eyes and paint or glue any other accents, like ears, wings, or hair.
This activity is simple but can provide a couple of hours of fun if you decide to paint a lot of different characters.
After they’re complete, you can give them to your kids for a homemade farm or zoo game, display them on a desk or shelf, or give them to friends and family!
