Pipe Cleaner Snake Toddler Craft - finished snake with google eyes This is a fun indoor activity for your toddler to do. This activity also serves as a hand-eye coordination lesson. Your child will be focusing on putting the beads on and once in awhile you can ask for a certain color or shape too to double up the lesson.

Afterwards, your child can play with the snake in the backyard, or use their imagination. Once they're finished, they can turn the snake into a bracelet too!

Total Time: Depends on your child

Supplies:

pipe cleaner
assorted beads
eyeballs - optional

Once you have nearly reached the end of the pipe cleaner, you will knot the top like 2-3 beads to create the front head of the snake. And twist the pipe cleaner for an illusion of a snake.
