Upload your Eggs-traordinary Animals!

Made an eggs-traordinary animal already? If you missed the activity in Pocket Money magazine, here’s how to make one:


1. Ask an adult to help you gently poke a hole in each end of an egg using a darning needle. Wiggle the needle around to make one of the holes bigger.
2. Blow gently through the smaller hole over a mixing bowl to blow out the egg. (Use the egg for a cake or to make scrambled egg!)
3. When the eggshell is empty, wipe it with a paper towel. Now it's ready for you to make one of the animals below.
