Hello there! We have an ‘eggcellent’ Make & Do for you this month: a Marill egg cosy! This is perfect for Pokémon fans who want to keep their boiled eggs nice and toasty. Simply follow the instructions below and you’ll have a Pokémon for your boiled egg and soldiers in no time…

You will need…

To create your egg cosy you will need the following…
1 LARGE PIECE OF BLUE FABRIC
For the body and the outside of the ears.
1 SMALL PIECE OF RED FABRIC
For the inside of the ears, plus the mouth.
2 BUTTONS OF THE SAME SIZE
For the eyes.
SOME BLUE COTTON
Used to sew it all together.
SOME FABRIC GLUE
To stick stuff on in case you don’t want to sew it.
LEVEL: EASY
TIME: 30 MINUTES

1. Draw around the template for Marill’s body onto a piece of paper. Ask an adult to cut that out. Then place the paper template onto the blue fabric and draw around it. Put the template on the fabric again and draw around it. Get a grown-up to cut both pieces out so you have one for the front and back of your Pokémon.

.

.

2. Next our Marill needs a pair of ears. Repeat step one, but this time with the bigger circle template on the blue fabric. Ask an adult to cut these out and place to one side. Repeat this to make the inside of the ears, but this time use a smaller circle paper template on red fabric to do so. Get a grown-up to cut these out too.
.

.

3. Take one of your bigger blue circles and put a smaller red circle on top of it to make Marill’s ears. You can sew these on, or just pop a bit of fabric glue on to stick them in place. For Marill’s eyes, take two buttons and put them onto one piece of the body fabric. Ask an adult to sew these in place – or you can glue them on if you want to.

.

.

4. Now we’re going to fix Marill’s body together. Take the two body pieces and line them up. Make sure that the buttons are facing outside. Get a grown-up to sew along the edges (but not the bottom).

.

.

5. All that’s left is for you to stick your ears onto the body. Plop a bit of glue where you’d like his listeners to be fixed and wait for it to dry. You can even add a mouth if you like with a scrap of red fabric. Put it on top of a boiled egg and you’re finished!

You could make a Marill egg cosy as a gift for a friend… or yourself!

Fancy making a magazine holder to keep all your lovely issues of Pokémon World in?! They’re really fun to make and even more fun to decorate. We show you how in our step-by-step guide. Happy organising!

You will need…

To create your Magazine Holder you will need the following…
AN EMPTY CEREAL BOX
For cutting up and keeping the magazines in.
A PAIR OF SCISSORS
Ask an adult to help you, or get them to do the snipping.
SOME GLUE OR SELLOTAPE
To stick your decorations on.
SOME POSTERS, STICKERS, CARDS OR DRAWINGS
To decorate your magazine holder with.
A PENCIL AND RULER
To mark out where to cut.
LEVEL: EASY
TIME: 30 MINUTES

1. Ask an adult to cut the top flaps off the top of the box – we don’t need these bits.

.

.

.

.

.

2. Lay the box flat and draw a diagonal line from the top of the box downwards. Be careful not to go from corner to corner because the holder won’t be strong enough.
.

.

.

3. Get a grown-up to cut along the line you’ve just drawn, then draw another line across the side of the box to match-up and cut along there too.

.

4. Draw a line to match the angle you’ve drawn and cut out on the first panel, then snip down it.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

5. Now for the really fun part – decorating! We cut out Pokédex Cards from one of our issues of Pokémon World to stick all over our magazine holder, but you can use posters, stickers, paint, glitter – whatever takes your fancy.

.

.

.

.

6. If you choose to decorate your magazine holder with Pokédex Cards then don’t worry about sticking them down in a straight line – lay them out however you like and secure with sticky tape or glue. If you’ve used glue then wait for it to dry before putting your magazines inside the holder.

.

.

Check that your cereal box is big enough to fit your magazines in before cutting it up – some are smaller than others!

Hi guys, here’s a recipe for some delicious baked goods – cookies, to be exact! And for an added Poké twist we’ve decided to make them in the shape of Pikachu’s face! Just read on for our super-easy guide to making your very own batch of ginger Pikachu cookies. They go really well with an ice-cold glass of milk or juice. Yum!

You will need…

The mixture should make enough for 12-15 cookies, depending on their size.
150g    PLAIN FLOUR
65g    BUTTER
50g    BROWN SUGAR
1/2tsp    BICARBONATE OF SODA
1tsp    GROUND GINGER
4tsp    GOLDEN SYRUP

EXTRA  ITEMS YOU WILL NEED…
For the decorating you you need icing sugar, yellow food colouring for Pikachu’s face and black and red writing icing to draw the face details on.
LEVEL EASY
TIME 20 MINUTES

Before you start:
Remember to wash and dry your hands properly with soap and water. Important: Ovens can be very dangerous – be sure to ask an adult to turn the oven on for you and get them to take the stuff out of there when it’s hot!

1. Ask an adult to preheat the oven to 180°C. Put your sugar and butter into a bowl. Stir them around until they’ve mixed together nicely.

.

.

2. Next pour in the plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, ginger and golden syrup. Keep on stirring the ingredients until they’re all mixed in.

3. Put the big lump of dough onto a clean worktop or chopping board with flour on (to stop it sticking to it). Roll it out so it’s nice and flat, but about 2-3mm thick.

.

4. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circle shapes from the flattened dough. Then take small pieces of dough and roll them into small sausage shapes in your hand. Stick two of them on to each circle for Pikachu’s ears.

5. Get a grown-up to pop the cookies into the oven for about 8-10 minutes. While they’re cooking pour some icing sugar into a bowl and add a little bit of water to make it into a thick paste. Add two drops of yellow food colouring.

6. Ask an adult to take the cookies out of the oven. Leave to cool completely then add your yellow icing all over the ‘faces’. Pop in the fridge to set a bit and then add the ears, eyes, cheeks and mouth. And you’re done!

Turtwig’s Tip!

Why not use red or pink sweets for Pikachu’s cheeks? Mmmm, tasty chocolate!
