Materials:
- White cardstock
- Fork (plastic or metal)
- Yellow washable kids paint
- Hot glue gun
- Googly eyes
- Orange felt
- Permanent marker
- Paintbrush
- Paper plate
- Craft scissors
Instructions:
- Place a little bit of yellow washable kids paint onto a paper plate.
- Using the paintbrush, paint the underside of the fork to get a nice coat of yellow paint and then stamp and roll onto the white cardstock. Repeat the process to get a nice, feathery chick body.
- After you have stamped your chicks body, using a piece of old felt or rag, dab the center of the body to blend in the fork marks. This will give the chick a nicer, cleaner face to add the beak and googly eyes. Let dry a bit.
- Next, cut out a small beak out of the orange felt and hot glue the beak and googly eyes to the chick. *Hot glue gun should be used by adults only*
- Lastly, add the legs for the chick using permanent marker. Let dry completely.
