  2. Near the first bubble make the second and twist it - this will be one ear, do the same thing again to make the second one.
  3. To get a full head, take the bubbles in hand as shown in the picture, and tighten them.
  4. The body for the monkey is done on the same principle as for the dog. Make two bubbles about 10 cm and twist them, so you get the front paws.
  5. Make a bubble of similar length - this will be the trunk. Then form the hind legs of the monkey according to the example of the forelegs. The remainder of the ball is slightly bent to get the tail.

The beauty of such a monkey is that it can be vertically clasped to other long balls or carried on a stick, and also hung on objects, decorating the room.

  7. In order to make the front legs of the crocodile, form a soft bubble 8-9 cm, bend it and twist the ends together.
