Once dry have your child slide their foot into the shoe and act like a clown.

Large Paper Clip
Cut out two triangles with the top points meeting in the middle to create a bow tie or cut out a diamond with one side short and the other side really long.

Cut a tall triangle out of your construction paper. Round off the bottom of the triangle to make it look like a clown hat. Next offer the pre punched holes, toothpicks and glue to your child to decorate their hat. Use the toothpick to place the glue onto the hat. Glue on a pompom on the top of the triangle for a finishing touch.
**Option** If your child is to young to do this you can get the same look but a little larger dots by letting your child use bingo markers. **
