Every castle needs a KING so that’s exactly what inspired today’s post!

A simple kid craft idea that is perfect for boys AND girls alike! Made with a few inexpensive supplies and a little imagination, you too can bring some one-of-a-kind “emperors” to life with our Popsicle Stick Kings Kid Craft tutorial! Did I mention this idea is also great for Christmas?

So let’s grab our supplies and make some adorable & completely customizable pieces together! Then display as is OR set up shop for some castle themed playtime in the living room. Whatever you do – I hope you AND your child have fun with it!

Happy crafting my dear new friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts

Popsicle Stick Kings Supplies:

* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per king}
* School Glue
* Colored Cardstock {we used tan, yellow & red}
* Small Craft Rhinestones
* White Cotton Balls
* Craft Scissors
* Large Wiggle Eyes
optional – craft paint, glitter, feather etc.

Directions:

* First grab three popsicle sticks {three per king} and glue them together to look like a triangle. Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat.
* While those are drying, grab your cardstock paper and cut a triangular shape that will be placed within the popsicle stick design and be the face of the king. At this time, you should also cut out a crown and circular nose from the remaining cardstock.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Kings – have children glue their paper pieces in place, as well as a full cotton ball beard and two wiggle eyes. Then add other embellishments they see fit to complete the look. Once done, set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
