Paper mache is really easy to do -- the "glue" we use is 1 cup flour and 1 cup water (mixed vigorously). Then we add 4 cups of boiling hot water (and Mom mixes). Let the mixture cool and then dip strips of paper into the mixture and spread smoothly.
We bought three big balls (for less than $3 each) from Target to use as our base.

Then we painted it all blue. |

A few days later I painted the basic continents so that the kids knew where to place the glue and colored sand. |
Europe, Asia (Are you sleeping)
A-fri-ca (Are you sleeping)
North America, South America (Brother John, Brother John)
Then there is Antarctica (Morning bells are ringing)
Don't forget Australia (Morning bells are ringing)
7 continents, 7 continents (Ding, ding, dong, Ding, ding, dong)
They turned out great!
