Super Silly Cut-Out Pictures

This is an activity I saw on Pinterest awhile back and thought that it was perfect for Princess and Dirty D to do when they were bored or just needed a laugh.  Definitely giggle worthy, watching all the combinations the kids come up with, and can keep them entertained for quite a bit!

To prepare, I cut out a bunch of animal heads and human torso pictures out from the stack of old magazines that we have set aside for collage material.  I started out only cutting dog and cat pictures, but realized that the bigger variety of animals I had would mean more funny combinations.  So before I knew it, a bear, fish, and horse were included in the collection.

For the human torsos, I tried to find pictures where the subject was posing in a silly way or wearing bright colors.  Anything to make the combination of human torso to animal head more interesting and amusing.

I have a ton of pet magazines so we have more cats and dogs...


Then I spread the pictures out on the table so the kids could see them all and showed them some hilarious combinations.  The rest was up to the kids.


They took to it right away, and the giggling commenced! (Sorry for the bad photo quality, my camera was acting weird.)

This dog is ecstatic!

This dog sure is sassy!
My favorite:  shopping kitten!


 After exploring a bunch of different funny combinations, the glued their favorites to index cards as if they were little photographs.

Too funny!
The kids really shared a bunch of laughs making up their silly combinations...the way this went, we will definitely be doing it again!  I think this would be awesome as a rainy day activity too!
