Directions:

  • First things first – fold your WHITE cardstock paper in half and open it back up.
  • Grab your Tulip puffy paint and squirt some brown craft paint ON ONE SIDE before closing it up again.
  • Once the paper is closed for the second time, gently take your hand and “caress” the paper so the brown paint inside, makes a fun symmetrical print design on both sides of the paper.
  • Now you are ready to open it back up and see the BEGINNING of what your reindeer’s head will eventually be. From there you decorate it to bring it to life and give it life.
  • Next up, grab the black cardstock paper and pencil.
  • Trace both of your hands on the paper and trim them out. These will become the antlers.
  • Out of the remaining red cardstock paper, cut out a large nose.
  • Finally – the last step in completing this reindeer paint splatter craft is to glue down ALL the cardstock cutout pieces and the googly eyes, on top of the paint splat design. I would highly suggest starting with the nose in the center and building from there.
  • Once finished with your custom paint splatter reindeer masterpiece, then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
