Four little speckled frogs…FO 4/2012

February 6, 2012

sat on a speckled log.

Or in this case a speckled table.

These little guys are made from this free pattern over at Purl, with thanks to them for sharing.

A few scraps of fabric, some ‘past their sell-by date’ lentils, and voila, happy children.

The originals have beautiful little bead eyes,

but in this house they’d be pulled off and eaten

faster than you can say

‘Ribbet’

      Flinging the frog is a great game! 😉

    Rather gorgeous frogs! Would have been very handy today when I led 60 5 and 6 year olds in a very noisy rendition of Five Little Speckled Frogs!

      Ah…we sing that a lot here…accompanied by the leaping of the frogs into the ‘pool’…and much shrieking!
