Koala Habitat Project with Paige

Paige had an assignment at school recently that we worked on together. She was given a foam egg and the project was to research an animal and then turn the egg in to the animal and create a model of the animal's habitat. Paige was assigned a Koala, so we create a eucalyptus tree out of a toilet paper roll with construction paper, and used some wire and a ping pong ball to make the koala. It was a whole lot of work, and unfortunately at Paige's age, the majority of the work was mine. It was hard to get everything attached, glued, drilled, and mounted. We were pretty happy with the way it turned out, and tried to have some fun putting it all together.
