Donkey Paper Craft

This is a simple cut and paste paper craft good "just for fun", a farm theme or a mammal theme.
 

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 legs if you want them to be moveable.
   

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice -- there is a choice of brown, grey or uncolored.
   
• Colour (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.
   
• Glue the donkey together in the following order:
   
  • feet onto the bottom of the large (grey) oval
     
    • one front and one back on the front of the body
       
    • one front and one back behind the body
       
  • head onto the front of the body
     
  • tail onto the back of the body
     
  • mane onto the body/head
     
  • forward ear onto the head
     
  • hair onto the head
     
  • back ear onto the head
     
  • See picture on the template for further help
     

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
