DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Mother Earth Paper Craft

Tasha got a real kick out of the Mother Earth craft. It was the first time we'd talked about the planet as "Mother" and she was quite tickled by it. Use this craft as an opportunity to talk about the planet and how it's up to each of us to take care of it.

Materials:

scissors
glue
printer
paper
something to colour with (B&W version)

Instructions:

Print out the template.
Colour the pieces as appropriate and cut them out.
Glue the hair and then face onto the planet.
Glue on the arms and legs.
Glue the bow to the hair.
Glue the flower and shell to the hair or the hands as preferred.
If you choose the Black and White template, try printing one copy on blue construction paper and one on white. Then mix and match the pieces.

Templates:

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 or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
