DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Squirrel Paper Craft
This squirrel is a simple cut and paste paper craft that is fun for
young children to make. It makes a great project for preschool and
kindergarten kids (though my 9 year old really enjoyed it too *grin*) There
is a small (single page) and larger (two templates) version to choose
from. |
|
Materials:
 | something to colour with if using the
B&W version, |
| scissors, |
| glue, and |
| paper
|
| You can use brass tacks instead of glue to
attach the head, tail or arms if you want them to be moveable. |
Instructions:
| Print out the template of choice.
|
| Colour (where appropriate).
|
| Cut out the template pieces -- parents can help cut out some of the more
difficult pieces like the acorn while children work on the easier
pieces like the body and legs.
|
| Glue the squirrel together in the following order:
 | glue the feet behind the body |
| glue the arms onto the body |
| glue the acorn into one of the hands |
| glue the tail behind the body |
| glue the head onto the body
|
| See picture on the template for further help

page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers). |
