Start sewing cow pies from the bottom to the top while making attention to sewing in a rounded shape at the top.

Then put some padding inside and put a button inside it too but don't overdo it because the button could be stuck.

Sew a heart or use a heart shaped toy (it is used in the game to fill the cow's milk).

Think of letting a little hole to put a button inside the heart and add padding inside it.

connect the button to the eg starts card with wires.
