Happy Groundhog's Day!

Is anyone else as bummed as I am that winter is going to last another 6 weeks.  LAME!!!  So anyways, for a homeschool/family activity we talked about groundhogs day and made these little groundhogs.  All it is is a paper cup cut in half and then wrapped with green felt.  Then I took an old fashioned clothes pin (you could use a popsicle stick, but this was all I had on hand), and cover that with brown felt.  Attach a couple of googly eyes and cut a small hole in the bottom of the cup for the stick.  And there you have it!  A groundhog complete with hole that can come in and out as he pleases.  That is whenever he doesn't see his shadow.
