Handprint Koala On Eucalyptus Tree

Handprint Koala On Eucalyptus Tree

Koala Craft Idea For Kids

It’s a super easy handprint koala keepsake that children can craft up, with minimal help or steps.

This is such a cute and easy craft idea that makes for a great art project idea for kids! Assemble your supplies and then let the kids have at it crafting up their own paper koala on tree branch craft. I’ve even included a FREE printable below to get everyone started even faster!

Kids can make as many or as few koalas as they like and even decorate their popsicle sticks however they choose. We used googly eyes and crayons to bring our koalas to life but you could also use other materials like stickers, glitter, etc. This is truly a super easy craft idea for kids that can be done in no time at all! And when they’re done they’ll have the cutest koala handprint keepsake to display proudly for all to see!

So get crafting by checking out the full tutorial below!
