I am so excited to be sharing these simple Lorax oranges today. This is both a craft and snack idea perfect for a Lorax movie watching party, Dr. Seuss Birthday Party or Earth day celebration
How To Make Lorax Oranges
Just grab your favorite clementine, like Halos or Cuties, and glue googly eyes and a yellow Lorax mustache. Lorax oranges are super easy to make and then you have a healthy Lorax snack to eat later.
I had to draw the mustache a few times on paper to get the size and shape to work with the little oranges. Then I used the template to cut the Lorax mustaches from yellow felt.
It’s super easy once you have a template – so I’m sharing one below. 🙂 I used a hot glue gun but regular glue would work better for little kids.

I love love love this idea! I tried putting one together, but I couldn’t get the glue to stick to the oranges. Any ideas what I need to do differently?
Thank you so much for the darling idea!

Did you try a hot glue gun? Glue dots might also be a good option if you don’t want to use a glue gun.
