Paper Plate Hatching Baby Chick - Kid Craft

Get creative with your kids this spring by recreating this adorable baby chick paper plate craft with them!

Craft Supplies:

Directions:

  • First things first – print out the FREE hatching baby chick printable above. You only need to print one baby chick per craft, on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. Print as many as you like!
  • Next go ahead and have children color in the baby chick in their printable, completely yellow with a little orange on his beak.
  • Go ahead and glue the wiggle eye on the printable, so he can see.
  • When done for those steps, have them trim out their decorated chick shape and set it aside till you are ready for it.
  • Next up, grab ONE large paper plate per chick craft. Go ahead and cut it in half, to resemble a cracked Easter egg.
  • Now take your various craft paints and paint brushes. Decorate the paper plate halves you just made, however you like.
  • When done, set them aside to let them dry a bit.
  • Finally – the last step. Grab all your paper pieces and hand-held stapler.
  • Staple the two paper plate pieces back together to look like it’s a “hatching” egg.
  • Follow that up by stapling in the paper chick, to the back of the paper plate pieces. Your new friend should look like it’s peeking out of the cracked egg now.
  • And that’s it! Add other embellishments you see fit before displaying your Hatching Baby Chick Piece proudly for ALL to see!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
