I saw this idea on Pinterest. I was thinking this would be a fabulously fun, fine motor and math activity for my snake happy son. We used plastic eggs and a pipe cleaner for ours, but you can see the original idea HERE. I made a small knot at the end of the pipe cleaner so the egg ends wouldn't slip through.
I was thinking they looked a little like caterpillars, but Tayler saw his as a cobra snake. So he stuck one of the eggs on the opposite way to create it's "hood". Then he added eyes and left the pipe cleaner sticking out for the tongue. Pretty dang cute cobra to me!
Another great fine motor skill. You could incorporate patterning and counting into this as well.
