Get ready to get down, gang!

It’s a brand new year on Activity TV, and that means all new fun activities for kids!

This month, it’s a whole new song and dance routine, literally! My new friend Cassie Crump is teaching us how to get up and dance with some cool, easy-to-learn dance moves.

These awesome steps will be sure to get the party started anywhere you go! Now if only I could get my paws into rhythm…

But what fun is dancing without a little music to go with it! Fear not, my friends! Dave Jadico has you covered with his wide selection of homemade musical instruments! You can learn how to make and play singing water glasses, or start a band with a pair of bongos and a homemade shoebox guitar!

With these instruments, you can learn to play your favorite songs or even write your own! I can’t wait to start my own puppy band. We’re going to be huge!!!

We hope you have fun making music with these musical crafts.

Be sure to keep an eye out for other fun new activities that pop up in the coming weeks too. There’s going to be all kinds of fun for everyone!

Until next time, Sock Puppy out!

Hello Fellow Cartooners!!!!

Whew! The responses that you guys have been posting are awesome, and I really appreciate the kind words you have written.

Chante from MD wrote that my V is for Valentine Cartoon is a wonderful Valentines Day gift idea. Thanks for bringing that up! A sketch like this is great for making your own greeting card. When you create a card for someone in your family or one of your friends, it says that you must really care about them because you took time to make one rather than buy one at the store.

Speaking of creating your own greeting cards from your cartoon drawings, that is just what Savanna from FL said about the S is for Santa Claus Cartoon. This cartoon all started with the letter S that I turned into Santa. This is called a Doodle Trick. Cartooning with numbers and letters is a blast!!!! The key is to build on what that number or letter presents to you in the way of possibilities. For example, the bottom part of the letter S worked great for Santa’s nose, while the top part worked nicely for his eyebrow. Coming up with different ideas for the same letter is the way to develop your “Cartoonist” eye!!

Don’t forget to check out the other Christmas, Chanukah and Valentines Day drawings like
Dizzy Dreidel, Rudolph, Snowman, and lots more!!

Thanks, and Keep on Cartooning!!!
