Sandra, This is the youtube video I used to make a frog with my boyfriend's grandaughter. We didn't do the color change, just made the whole thing green. I believe we used blanket yarn with a bigger hopk so it was a little bigger and squishier. If you search youtube for no sew amigurumi you can find alot of patterns and might see something easy that she would love. https://youtu.be/nN9JK9JZG-k?si=yiyMWoGFSCvvKnu8
