Christmas Crafts Part 2…Reindeer Faces
On Friday we completed part 2 of our Christmas crafts I mentioned in my previous posts. This craft get together went much better than our previous gathering, with scheduled naps, and plenty of treats to keep the kids happy. And my little man actually colored on the paper this time! So here is what you need to make our Reindeer faces…
Medium size red pom poms
Tan construction paper
Dark brown construction paper
Red or green construction paper
Googly eyes
Glue
Red glitter
Crayons
Safety Scissors (or regular scissors if you are doing the cutting)
So here is what you do to put your craft together…
Trace the kids hands and one foot on white paper. Use these traces to make cut-outs to then trace the hands on the dark brown construction paper, and the foot on the tan colored construction paper. While you are cutting the hands and feet out (unless you have an older child who can do this with safety scissors…we don’t!), let the kids color on red or green construction paper. After completing the cut-outs paste the hands first and then foot on top of the hands on the colored red or green construction paper…as so…
Hands and Feet
Then add your googly eyes and pom pom with glue, as seen here…
Add Eyes and a Nose
Then add glue around the antlers and let your kids shake glitter all over (tip: place the pictures on a foil covered cookie sheet so when they sprinkle the glitter on it doesn’t cover your floor…completely)
Add Some Sparkle!
And then stand back and admire your completed craft!
