Make a sweet handprint penguin craft project using cardstock paper, crayons, and embellishments.

Craft Supplies:

Directions:

First things first – print out the provided penguin printable, on a single sheet of white cardstock paper.
Decorate the head and two heart shaped “feet” designs in the printable, with some crayons. You will want to leave the rectangle design blank from color but this is a great time to write a message on his “belly.”
When done coloring, trim out all the elements from the paper.
Discard excess paper.
Next grab your first sheet of black cardstock paper and pencil.
Trace both of your hands on the paper.
Trim out both designs.
Now grab the second piece of black cardstock paper. Fold it in half {hamburger style.}
Open it back up and cut it straight up the center to create TWO equal pieces.
Pull one half aside for today’s craft and save the other for a rainy day.
Now grab the ribbon and cut off TWO long pieces.
Staple the ribbon and handprint cutouts to each side of the black cardstock sheet.
Follow that up by gluing on the penguin head on top, his belly in the center and his penguin feet towards the bottom.
To finish off the paper penguin hug craft, simply add any other embellishments {along with the wiggle eyes and if you choose, an orange beak as well} to bring the penguin to life.
Then display as is or gift away to spread some cheer this winter season!
