Help!?
What can we use if we don't have colored paper or a black marker?
Use regular white paper colored with crayons, colored pencils, or paint for Unapooky and substitute a dark pen, fine-tip permanent marker, or a sharpened black colored pencil to trace the chameleon and Tweety outlines.
My marker smudged and pencil lines won't erase—what should I do?
Let the black marker dry fully before erasing, gently rub out pencil marks with a clean eraser, and if smudges remain hide them by adding stripes, spots, or stickers as decorative patterns on the chameleon or star.
How can I adapt the activity for younger or older children?
For younger children, pre-draw the rounded leaf chameleon body and pre-cut the star so they can color, sticker and glue decorations, while older kids can add detailed patterns, shading, mixed media like sequins or fabric, or create a scene with a background before posting on DIY.org.
How can we personalize or extend the finished party chameleon, Unapooky, and Tweety?
Turn them into a mobile or greeting card by mounting the chameleon, star, and Tweety on cardstock, attach the star with a string to make Unapooky hang, add googly eyes to the chameleon and sequins to Tweety, or give the chameleon's spiral tail a brad fastener so it swivels.

Facts about drawing and crafts for kids
🦎 Chameleons can move each eye independently, so they can look in two directions at the same time!
🎨 Pairing complementary colors (like purple and yellow) makes drawings jump off the page and feel extra festive.
🧪 Some chameleons change color using tiny skin crystals (structural coloration) that reflect light, not just pigments.
🎉 Star decorations have been used in celebrations and festivals around the world for centuries to symbolize hope and joy.
🐥 Tweety first appeared in the 1942 cartoon "A Tale of Two Kitties" and quickly became a famous Looney Tunes character.
