Cat

(balloon, plastic-foam cup, construction paper, permanent marker) Blow up a balloon and knot the end. Attach a piece of tape to the inside of a plastic-foam cup, leaving half of it bent like a tab over the opening of the cup. Do the same on the opposite edge of the cup. Place the balloon with the knotted end inside the cup. The tabs of tape should hold it in place. Tape the cup to the work surface to hold the balloon upright. Cut ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and bow tie from construction paper, and attach with pieces of rolled transparent tape. Add whiskers and eyelashes with a permanent marker.
