People frequently staple headband crafts together, but we prefer to use tape. Staples are fast, but they can catch on hair and rip it.
How to make a groundhog crown
First, download your printable PDF file from lower down in the post. Print one page for each child making the craft.
Color the crown pieces and bands before cutting, if you're using a coloring page version. Toddlers may only need the center portion of the crown and one extra band.
A page of extra bands in both color and black and white is provided in your PDF.
Older children will need a bit of a second extra band piece if they want the crown to sit across their foreheads instead of "perching" on top.
Cut out the groundhog crown portion and bands.
Tape the bands to make a crown that fits each child.
Wear and enjoy! Your child or students may want to add extras like glitter or stickers.
