Dyson Vacuum

• One black kids outfit

For the handle:

Use an empty paper towel roll and cover it with gray paper. Cut a strip of gray cardstock paper for the handle and glue in a handle loop onto the top of the paper towel tube. At the bottom edge of the tube, cut two slits on either side for an elastic band to fit through. Thread elastic band through and make a knot to secure it to fit around the head.

For the body:

Use yellow and white felt to make the main body of the vacuum. Cut two long rectangles of felt and hot glue together at the shoulders and sides, leaving openings for the head, arms, and legs to fit through. Glue small pieces of black felt for “dust” particles on the white felt.

For the vacuum base:

Use cardboard to make the bottom front of the vacuum. Paint it gray and write “dyson” on the front. Hot glue to the front bottom edge of the felt body piece. Cut, paint and glue wheels on either side of the bottom.
