Instructions

1. Young children have difficulty squeezing the bottles that dispense glue. Avoid
this frustration by giving each child his own glue cup.
2. Cut off and discard the tops of the egg cartons.
3. Cut the bottom of each egg carton bottom into six pieces, so that there are
two connected egg cups in each section.
4. Pour a small amount of glue into each cup and give each child a double cup.
The child can use his fingers to dip into, apply, and spread the glue.
5. If desired, the children can share the glue cups.
