DIY Paper Penguin Craft for Kids (Fun Winter Art Project)

Here's a cute craft for the kids to make...a penguin made out of paper! It is super simple to make and could be great for a winter art project. 

• Paper
• Tag board
• Pencil
• Scissors
• Glue

Directions:*Parents: Make a penguin outline on tag board paper and cut it out. No pattern needed - just freehand it.

1. Trace around the tag board outline. This helps with improving fine motor and writing skills.
2. Cut out the penguin outline.
3. Cut out the feet, beak, and eyes. These will look totally different than mine. Use your imagination!
4. Add extras. Will your penguin have a bow in it's hair? A necklace? A belt? Be creative!
5. Glue it all together!
6. When it is dry DISPLAY it somewhere special!
