Materials needed for a simple Easter chick craft
This baby chick cut and paste craft comes with an optional, full color background scene. You can omit it or use your own plain (or colored) piece of paper.
Here are the craft materials you'll need to use these free printables:
- Your free printable PDF file (look for the row of arrows pointing at the download link)
- Printer access and paper. I recommend this 32# HP bright white paper because it's more durable than regular printer paper.
- Cardstock paper can also be used, but is more difficult for younger kids to cut.
- Child safe scissors
- Glue stick
- Kids’ Scissors: Available in 4 cool colors kids love, our kid scissors for home and school are specially designed to accommodate a child’s hand
- Premium Blades: Our safety scissors for kids feature extra-strong and durable stainless steel safety blades with pointed tips
- Left- Or Right-Handed: Equipped with molded, symmetrical handles, our kids' safety scissors allow for either left- or right-handed use
How to make your chick craft template
First, grab your free chick template craft by using the download link lower in the post.
Print as many copies of the craft as you'd like. The entire chick craft is on the first page. The second page is an optional full color background.
Have your child or students use blunt-tipped scissors to cut out the chick pieces.
Use the reference image as a guide to glue the pieces together. Gluing them to a background can make the activity easier for kids.
The belly, wings, feet, beak, and eyes are all glued in place to make the chick. Wings and feet can be glued to the front or back. Other pieces need to be glued to the front.
Completed chicks can be attached to a large craft stick to use as a stick puppet, placed on toilet paper rolls to make them stand up, displayed on your classroom bulletin board, or even turned into sun catchers in a window.
