DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Bald Eagle Paper Craft

This is a simple cut and paste paper craft good "just for fun" or a bird theme made from a basic egg shape.

You can turn it into a handprint craft by replacing the wings with handprints traced onto a piece of brown construction paper.
 

Materials:

• something to colour with if using the B&W version,
• scissors,
• glue,
• paper.
   
• You can use brass tacks ("brads") instead of glue to attach the wings if you want them to be moveable.
   

Instructions: Print out the template of choice.   Colour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.   Glue the hen together in the following order: glue the feet onto the egg shaped body glue the head onto the body glue the wings onto the body. You can use the template piece or trace a hand onto a piece of paper and use that as the wing   See picture on the template for further help
