Materials needed for an easy eagle craft
This eagle cut and paste craft is available in both color and black and white.
To make this craft, you will need:
- Your free printable (look for the row of purple arrows pointing at the download button)
- Printer access and paper or card stock
- Blunt tipped scissors
- Glue stick
- Preschool pencil or something else to write and trace with
- Colored pencils or crayons, if you're using the coloring page version
- Blunt-tip Safety-edge Scissors
- Blade Sheath Included is an Eraser
- Accommodates right and left-handed users
My daughter likes to start by tracing the word, copying it for herself, then cutting the two pieces of the page apart along the dotted line.
Coloring the eagle is easiest before cutting out the pieces.
Once the pieces are colored and you're ready to assemble the eagle, glue the head, wings, and tail to the body piece. That's it! You can attach the finished eagle to a craft stick or paper bag if you want to make a puppet.
