Glue the circular tiny pieces to decorate the turtles shell.
Bend the feet of the turtle slightly in half.
Glue the four legs on four sides of the circle.
Glue the smaller circles on the turtle’s head to make the eyes.
Use a black marker pen to draw the eyes and use a pink pen to draw the face.
Then glue the head of the turtle to the shell. And there you go…. It’s done!
