Create with Ella

Ready for some squishy fun? Make your own Butter Squishy with Ella using our free printable template.


This activity was inspired by a scene from Book 3, The Way Home, where Ella's father, the King, is busy making his famous mashed potatoes. Well... at least he believes they are famous.


Some of the artwork from that scene even made its way onto the Butter Squishy.


Watch Ella make her own, then follow the steps below to make yours.
