Paper & Fork Painted Penguin

Paper and Fork Painted Penguin - Kid Craft Idea For Winter

Fork Painted Penguin Craft

Back when I first started Glued To My Crafts {in 2012} I had no idea what the “blogging world” would bring me.

Here I am five years later, a lot wiser and surprising, streaming a full time income from the very thing that brings me so much joy. How time flies and it’s amazing what technology has brought us to. Am I right?

Anyways – back to my story. When I first started my blog, it was just a place where I could share the many craft projects I was up to, hoping “maybe” to inspire a few here and there. I never really put much thought into it. It basically a diary.

Fast forward some time. One of my blog posts, becomes one of my MOST popular posts to date. It’s titled Top 20 Winter Themed Crafts and it brings me daily traffic from Google and Pinterest. It’s not the fanciest posts {in fact,  I cringe at the writing and pictures} but it really shows what people like. EASY, straight-forward crafts for their kids!!!

So in an effort to “spruce” up Glued To My Crafts this year, I’m making an effort to bring life back to my ultimate reader favorites. Starting with this Simple Paper and Fork Painted Penguin kid craft idea. It’s super simple for the younger ones and it’s got an added keepsake element to it too! It’s a basic cut and paint craft idea. I just hope it brings some new inspiration to you!

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s finished paper and paint penguin creations on our Facebook page to see! I just know you are going to have a blast recreating it with your child and I can’t wait to see those fork painted penguins afterwards! #gluedtomycrafts

Directions:

  • First trace both of your child’s hands on the orange cardstock.
  • Trim out each shape.
  • Set them aside till later on. These will be the penguin’s feet.
  • Next cut out a large penguin shape out of the black construction paper.
  • Add a squirt of white paint in the center. Just a small amount. You can always add more later on.
  • Hand over a paint brush {or fork} to your child. Tell them to only paint the middle part to create the belly of the penguin.
  • While they are working on that, cut out the remaining penguin elements from the cardstock. Think triangle beak, circular large eyes etc.
  • When they are done painting the belly on, it’s time for the last step! To finish off the Fork Painted Penguin kid craft, staple/glue your cardstock pieces in place.
  • Then add other embellishments you see fit {maybe some glitter or a hairbow} before displaying proudly!!!
