DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Handprint Chick Paper Craft
This cute chick will give you something to remember
those little crafting fingers with. (It makes a great
gift for long distance grandparents!)

Materials:
-
a printer,
-
paper for the printer,
-
yellow or white construction paper
-
scissors,
-
glue,
-
crayons (or something else to colour with).
Instructions:
-
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).
