Easter
Chick 
This cute Easter Chick will
give you something to remember those little crafting fingers with.
(It makes a great gift for long distance grandparents!)
This craft doesn't take a
toilet paper roll. All you'll need is a printer, piece of paper (I
prefer construction paper), scissors, glue and crayons (or something else
to colour with).
 |
Print out the template of choice.
|
|
Colour (where appropriate) and
cut out the template pieces.
|
|
Glue the face pieces (circle
eyes and triangle beak) onto the head.
|
|
Glue the legs onto the body.
|
|
Now comes the fun part!
Trace your child's hands onto another piece of paper (yellow construction
paper works well or use white paper and colour in).
|
|
Glue the hands onto the body
(thumbs up) to form wings. |
Alternative decorating ideas:
|
Instead of gluing on the wings,
you can use brass bendable tack things so the wings can be moved (I always
forget what those things are called!)
|
|
If you don't have a colour printer,
you can print one black & white copy on yellow construction paper and
a second copy on white. Then mix and match the pieces.
|
|
Buy feathers (or pluck your
old feather duster!) and glue a few feathers onto the top of the chick's
head. |
| Close the template window after printing to
return to this screen.
| Set page margins to zero if you have trouble
fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP in most browsers).
