“Evidence from around the world shows that women participate in subsistence hunting in the majority of cultures,” write the study authors.

Then add some craft foam shapes below the dome to represent crazy buttons that the domes may have.

Start by gluing the dome to the flying saucer.

Using the craft knife cut out your pieces to assemble your flying saucer puppets with little green men inside.

Use your card templates to draw 5 versions of each on different colours of craft foam.

From the dome cut out your little space alien and then draw around him and cut him out.

With the dome shape, paper template draw this onto your scrap card and cut out.

Draw around the template and then cut out.

Fold some card that will provide a lasting template and place your flying saucer on the edge so that you can create a full flying saucer shape when the card is unfolded.

Fold a piece of scrap paper in half and use this to create an oval shape for the flying saucer, a long dome for the cabin of the flying saucer and then roughly draw your little space creature inside.

Start by creating a template for your flying saucers.
