“Old MacDonald had a farm! Ee-I-Ee-I-O!”
Inspired by the classic {and honestly never ending, stuck in your head, forever song} today I present to YOU our personal favorite Mixed Media Popsicle Stick Barn kid craft idea!
Perfect for younger children to recreate with the help of parents! Plus you can pair this paper barn craft idea with some farm themed books for story time AND craft time!
This fun popsicle stick barn Old MacDonald craft is perfect for kids of all ages! It’s simple to make and a great way to teach them about farm animals.
On that note, happy crafting, my friends!
Craft Supplies:
- Six Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 6 per craft
- Cardstock Paper
- School Glue
- Raffia/Straw
- Scissors
- Markers or Crayons
- Farm Animal Stickers
Directions:
- First things first – glue your SIX JUMBO POPSICLE STICKS into a barn formation, in the center of the cardstock. I started with the triangle towards the top, then made the square on the bottom.
- Now take your marker and draw on some embellishments to make it look like a barn.
- Next grab your raffia or straw. Cut it down in size if you need to.
- Put a good layer of glue towards the bottom of the barn.
- Lay the raffia/straw on top of the glue until it stays in place.
- Finish off the Popsicle Stick Barn craft by adding on the farm stickers all around.
- Then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!
