DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Goose Paper Craft 

Contributed by Leanne Guenther

This is a simple cut and paste paper craft of a goose.  The craft is good "just for fun", for a bird theme, or for a farm theme.

You can make the craft into a handprint craft by replacing the template wings with traced handprints if you like.

Materials:

• something to color with if using the B&W version,
• scissors,
• glue,
• paper.
• You can use brass fasteners ("brads") instead of glue to attach the wing if you want it to be moveable.

Instructions:

• Print out the craft template of choice.
• Color (if using the black and white version of the craft) and cut out the template pieces.
• Glue the goose together in the following order:
  • head onto the body
  • Glue the tail onto the body
  • Glue the feet onto the body
  • Glue the beak onto the head
  • 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.

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).
