DIY Feeding Friends (Good for toddlers)

   I bet any toddler will like this adorable toy. My 2 year old sister loves it and always asks if she can feed it. I make a circle of felt and cut out a circle of t-shirt material the same size. Then I hand sew the edges. I make a face on the T-shirt part of it and cut a slit for the mouth.

Because the mouth is on stretchy fabric it can "eat" things larger than it's mouth. For the food, I cut out some food pictures from magazines or sales papers and glue it onto cardboard.













If you want, beforehand, you can sew a pipe cleaner in the top for a handle. You can also add a beard or even ears on them. I kept mine simple. My sister liked it just fine. So, now that you're done, give it to your little brother or sister or just keep it for yourself. It doesn't matter what you do with them. Just have fun!

Shall we feed them now?
