* Thick Craft Glue
* Wiggle Eyes
* Scissors
* Marker
optional – glitter, markers, stickers etc.

Directions:

* First grab your white cardstock. Have children draw/cut out a large “U” shape that will be the body of their unicorn. With the remaining white cardstock, have them cut out a head and ear.
* Next grab your purple cardstock {or any color you like!} Have children glue their white pieces to the center of the cardstock. Finish off by cutting a unicorn horn out of the yellow and gluing it on as well.
* Now you are ready for the unicorn’s hair! Grab your scissors and pipe cleaners. Cut out several 2-3 inches for the tail and mane of the unicorn.
* To finish off your Unicorn kid craft – have children glue their pipe cleaners in place, along with any other embellishments they like on the cardstock piece. Add a wiggle eye so it can see, before displaying proudly!!!
