Paint the Chipmunk's Body

First, pick a piece of construction paper for your background. Ask a grown-up to help you put a little brown paint on a paper plate. Pinch a medium pompom with a clothespin to make a paintbrush. Dip your pompom into the brown paint. Tap a big circle in the middle of your paper for the chipmunk's head. Then, tap a triangle shape below the head for the chipmunk's body. Let the paint dry completely.
