Sea Urchins are ocean animals that do not have a backbone (invertebrates).

  • paint & paint brush (optional)
  • toothpicks/colored party picks

Directions

  • Paint toothpicks, if desired or use colored party picks.
  • Push toothpicks/ party picks into the strofoam ball.
  • You now have a model of an underwater sea animal!

If you prefer you could use a small amount of clay or silly puddy instead of the small styrofoam ball.
