Cardboard Tubies: Arctic Fox

 Until the pandemic, I worked with kids at our local library. We had two sessions. One for younger kids ages 3 to 3rd grade (Storytime) and another for kids 4th- 6th grade (ArtVentures) We tried to use lots of recycled materials: cardboard tubes, paper plates, cups, etc. Since we can't meet face to face, I've been posting on FRIENDS of the Gillespie Library on Pinterest showing things you can make from cardboard tubes. (Most I reposted from Pinterest.) This is my first original "tubie" of an Arctic Fox. Can't wait to get back to the library and start seeing our kids once more.
