Directions:

  • First things first – print out the FREE cow spots printable that is listed above in the supply list.
  • Next go ahead and have children color in the various heart shapes in their printable. I suggest black for the hearts but any color will do!
  • When done, help them trim out ALL the various heart shapes out. Discard excess paper.
  • Next up, grab your remaining white, pink and brown cardstock paper.
  • Out of the pink, cut out a large oval shape for the snout of the cow.
  • Out of the brown, cut out two horns.
  • Finally, out the second sheet of white cardstock paper, cut out two ears.
  • Now we are ready to assemble our cow! Grab your large paper plate and glue stick.
  • Start off by gluing the black hearts in various spots on the paper plate. Be sure to save two of the smaller ones for the nose of the cow!
  • Follow that up by gluing on the pink snout, his ears and of course, stapling on the horns and ears to the decorated plate as well.
  • And that’s it! Add other embellishments you see fit before displaying your heart covered cow craft proudly for ALL to see!

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!
