Instructions
  1. Thoroughly rinse out dish-soap bottle and plastic detergent jug.

  2. Using a marker, design interchangeable heads on the scrap plastic and cut out with scissors. (Pictured here are gaping jaws, with the option of substituting an elephant or dinosaur face.) Place a face over the bottle's neck and secure with the screw-on nozzle.

  3. Decorate the body of the bottle with markers.

  4. To make the holster, cut the spout off the plastic detergent jug. Add stars cut from scrap plastic (secured with paper fasteners) and thread the plastic belt through the handle. Then fill up Squirt with clean water. Ready, set, aim!
