Easter Chick Craft

Materials

• Chick craft template
• Paper plate
• Yellow tissue paper
• Orange paper
• Scissors
• Glue

Instructions

First, download and print out the chick craft template, which you can find at the bottom of this page.

Next, cut out small pieces of yellow tissue paper (approximately 1″x1″ squares).

Working in sections, cover a part of the chick with glue, crinkle a piece of yellow tissue paper and stick the tissue paper to the glue.

Continue until the entire chick is covered in yellow tissue paper.

Cut out around the outside of the chick and cut out the chick’s eyes and beak.

Trace the beak onto orange paper (or you can just color it orange using orange pen or colored pencil) and cut it out.

Glue the eyes and beak onto the chick’s face.

Now it’s time to make the eggshell! Trace the outside of the egg onto a white paper plate. Then cut the egg template in the middle and trace the middle line onto the paper plate.

Cut out the egg pieces from the paper plate.

Glue the bottom of the eggshell to the bottom of the chick and the top of the egg to the top of the chick’s head.

And just like that your adorable Easter chick craft is complete!
