Spiral snakes are very easy to make and can be hung up around the place as jungle or halloween decorations. When I was little my Welsh grandmother used to make a variant of these for Christmas (less snaky 😉 ).

Green circle

Draw a circle and cut it out – pre cut circles save a lot of hassle when doing this project with small children.

Asleep snake

Draw a spiral and then add snake makings and face to it – this can be done with pens and pencils or with stickers or ink/paint stamps or even embossing for a more subtle patterning.

Awake Snake

Then cut around the spiral. There are many templates that you can by or find for free download on the internet but I find free hand ones work just as well 🙂

To add string either punch a whole and tie the ribbon or thread onto it or use tape. They will dance and move in thermals air currents.
