Instructions:
- First glue your wooden craft sticks together to look like a fence {seven next to each other and two across the back}.
- Set aside to let it dry completely.
- Repeat for each penguin craft you want to make today.
- Now you are ready for paint. Go ahead and paint the front of your popsicle stick fence completely white.
- Set aside to let it dry completely.
- Next grab your black felt and cut out two half circle arms for the penguin, as well as some small square eyes.
- Then grab your orange felt and cut out a large triangle beak for his nose & two heart shaped pieces for his feet.
- To finish off the penguin kids craft idea, have children glue on their felt embellishments to the front of their white painted popsicle stick fence from earlier.
- Then have them add other embellishments to give it life before displaying your popsicle stick penguin friend proudly!!!
MAKE IT YOUR OWN TODAY – if you don’t have craft felt for this craft, no worries! Swap it out with cardstock paper instead! My last tip is that you can hot glue string or ribbon to the back of the finished penguin to make an Christmas ornament out of it! It would be a great Christmas craft AND gift!
