Macaroni Animals Printables

Bring your autistic kiddo’s favorite animals to life with macaroni in this easy craft!

Macaroni Animals Printables Bring your autistic kiddo’s favorite animals to life with macaroni in this easy craft! What you’ll need: Animal face printouts Dry pasta Food coloring White vinegar Resealable plastic bag Glue Color pencils Instructions: Prepare your colorful pasta an hour in advance by adding 1/2 cup of dry pasta to a plastic bag along with a teaspoon of white vinegar and about 5 drops of food coloring. Seal the bag and shake the contents to ensure all the pasta is coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Repeat these steps with whichever other colors you plan to use. After your dyed pasta has been sitting for 10 minutes, empty the bags onto a baking sheet with parchment paper and allow them to dry to the touch. This should take about an hour. Once the dyed pasta has dried, it’s time to decorate! Using color pencils or crayons, have your kiddo start by coloring in their animal however they’d like. Finally, allow your kiddo to glue the pasta to the animal to create fun and silly pictures.Download Now!
