- We do Another cylinder of blue card or paper that is half the height of the yellow one. We are going to roll this cylinder in one half of the yellow one. So we will have got the body and head of our minion.
- Now comes the fun part: how many eyes do we put on it? What expression in the mouth? We are going to glue the eyes in the center of the yellow area of the minion's body and just below we will draw the expression of the mouth. We can add details on the clothes (blue cylinder) draw the strip of the glasses and all the details that come to mind. You can see images of minions to get more ideas.
