Cut out pieces needed for machine<\/h3>\n<div>Start by cutting out the pieces you&#8217;ll need for your bubble gum machine from your red and gray\u00a0cardstock paper. From your red paper you&#8217;ll need a base, a square for the bubble gum dispenser, an oval-type shape for the top and circle. From your gray you&#8217;ll need a circle.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/iheartcraftythings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/supplies-750x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"512\" border=\"0\"><\/div>\n<h3>2.

Glue stickers on gum machine<\/h3>\n<p>Place your round stickers inside your bubble gum machine. I had my daughter put 20 stickers inside her machine because we&#8217;ve been working on our numbers up to 20. I also had her practice writing the number 20 inside the gray circle. It turned out to be such a simple and fun craft.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"http:\/\/iheartcraftythings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/BubbleGumMachineCraft3-600x750.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/iheartcraftythings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/BubbleGumMachineCraft3-600x750.jpg\" width=\"512\" height=\"640\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My preschooler loves bubble gum, as most kids do.
