(After the sad misery of a failed project, I worked out a better frog.  It took me a few days, but I came up with a better idea.  The boys love these frogs just as much as the Ugliest Frogs in the World.  Maybe more because the Ugliest Frogs in the World have taken a vacation, trying to find out where everything went totally wrong.  This was an easy craft, and depending on the gluing skills, it could be relatively mess-free.)

Things you need:

• 2 in green pompom
• 2 small green pompoms
• 2 googly eyes
• Green craft foam
• Glue (school or craft)
• A pen
• Scissors

Glue a googly eye on each of the small green pompoms.  Allow them to dry.

Who's looking at you, kid?

  Cut out a circle out of the green foam to make a lily pad.  I used the top of the juice can to make my circle.  Cut out a triangle out of the circle. 

The lily pads

Have the child glue the 2in green pompom.  Have the child glue the frog eyes to the top of the 2in pompom.

I can see! I can see!
