This free printable Valentine's Day cut and paste craft is a no-prep way for children to practice fine motor skills, scissor skills, handwriting, and gluing skills.
My daughter had a great time making and coloring her cake craft but she gave it way before I could take pictures! Hopefully I can talk her into making another one.
Materials needed for a layer cake paper craft
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
It's easiest for little learners to write on the page while it's still intact. Have your child trace and free write "cake" before cutting the page up.
Coloring the cake pieces is also easier before cutting out the pieces.
After coloring, cut out the pieces.
Glue the pieces together to make a layer cake. A reference image is included. The three pieces of cake are glued together, the stem goes on the stand plate, and the cake goes on the completed stand.
Add glitter, colored sand, or other decorations, if desired.
That's it! This is a super easy, no-prep craft that your kids will be enjoying just minutes from now.
