Steps:

1. Ask your champ to draw a picture of the family on a thick sheet of paper using a pencil.

2. Ask him to colour the picture with the colours of his choice.

3. Now, punch holes in the head area, so that pieces of yarn can be pulled through to create hair.

4. Take at least 4 to 5 different colours of yarn and make finger sized pieces.

5. Demonstrate how to pull the piece of yarn through the punched hole so that your child repeats after you.

6. Tie a knot after the yarn is pulled halfway through the punched hole in order to secure it.

7. Cut out four strips of thin rectangles from the coloured paper to make a picture frame for the portrait.

8. Stick each piece of cut-out onto the thick sheet of paper on which the portrait has been made using a strong glue.
