Beaded Penguin

Penguin made out of black and white pony beads.

This little beaded  penguin will be happy to tag along on someone’s backpack or key chain after the kids have fun making this craft. Kids and grownups both love penguins.

Trivia:

All but two species of penguins breed in large colonies of up to one thousand birds. Source: Mental Floss – 20 Black and White Facts About Penguins
