Mixed Media Sunglasses Kid Craft - Free Printable

Paper & Aluminum Foil Sunglasses Craft

Today’s Sunglasses kid craft idea is PERFECT to pair with the book Pete the Cat and His Magic Sunglasses by James Dean {or any summer themed children’s book you may have on hand already!}

From the bestselling Pete the Cat series, Pete’s magic sunglasses help him turn his mood from grumpy to awesome!

In this hardcover picture book, Pete the Cat wakes up feeling grumpy—nothing seems to be going his way. But with the help of some magic sunglasses, Pete learns that a good mood has been inside him all along.

Fans of Pete the Cat will love watching him take his positive outlook and transform a grumpy day into an awesome day!

Best part about this kid friendly eyeglass shades craft idea? Children can decorate their paper and aluminum foil sunglasses however they like, so there is no need to go over elaborate directions or expectations {which more time for crafty fun!} You can instantly turn a grumpy day into a fun craft day with our simple art project idea!!!

Just keep scrolling for the FREE sunglass printable for preschoolers below!
