"I can because I toucan!" quote from Cap'n Mad Ellen's pet toucan Billy Bones.

  Supplies:

-1 small paper plate
-scissors
-glue
-black construction paper for body and tail feathers
-scrap paper in yellow, medium brown (or golden), red, green or blue for eye
-watercolors (I would suggest using standard washable acrylic paint for more vibrancy. The watercolors were too pale. Pretty though.)
-black paint
-paintbrush
-1 large googly eye

Cost: no cost for us
