Googly eyes, amiright"
They make everything funny (sidenote: I may have had to google "googly eyes" to get the right spelling. And then I may have giggled about googling googly eyes.)
We made googly eye magnets last weekend, and now we're sticking them everywhere.

BWAHAHAHAHAH! I could do this all day. No one who's ever given me a picture is safe.

You can use them for more than tormenting your friends and family, though. You can actually be creative with googly eye magnets. Grab a blank piece of paper, attach it to your fridge or dishwasher with the googly eyes, and then draw around them.

We also made some for my tween daughter to use in her middle school locker. Such a simple craft, so many possible ways to have fun with it (a reminder: do not have magnets around young children who could swallow them. I did this craft with a closely supervised six-year old and her older siblings.)
Here's what you need:

How to Make Googly Eye Magnets
Supplies:

large googly eyes (we bought the biggest ones we could find)
adhesive round magnets (make sure the magnets are smaller than the googly eyes)

Instructions:
Peel and stick the magnets to the backs of the googly eyes. If you can't find adhesive magnets, you can also glue the eyes to the side of the magnet that doesn't stick to the fridge. Let the glue dry and you're done!
Now -- go nuts! Use them on pictures of people, use them to draw pictures, make magnet ...
