DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Easy Lamb Craft
This cute little lamb is a great March (in like a
lion out like a lamb), farm animal or Bible craft project.
Sanjana shared a photo of her paper plate lamb in our fan
art section.
Materials:
it all depends on what option you use... you'll will need
either
 | paper plate (whatever size) |
| cardboard cut into a circle OR |
| margarine or ice cream container lid |
either
| white cotton batting (the kind you use for pillow stuffing) OR |
| cotton balls |
OPTIONAL: bow to decorate (we happened to have one in the
craft drawer from a gift, and Kaitlyn happened to have the urge to glue it
on her lamb's head)
Instructions:
| Spread glue all over your plate and glue on pieces of cotton.
Kaitlyn likes to rip her cotton balls in half before gluing them on as
the lamb is "fluffier" that way.
|
MAKE THE FACE
| Print out the template of choice. Colour (where appropriate)
and cut out the template pieces. (Younger children may require assistance with the
cutting.)
|
| Or skip the template and cut/draw your own pieces on construction
paper and glue them on
|
| Draw a mouth with black marker or paint or glue bits of
black construction paper in a mouth shape. |
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). |
