Flamingo Handprint Craft For Kids
My family watches a ton of wildlife shows. Â Recently we watched one that had a segment on flamingos. Â My youngest daughter has been obsessed since. Â Her favorite color is pink & she just can’t get over how they can stand on one leg for so long. Â Needless to say she keeps trying to mimic the flamingo by standing on one leg for as long as she can. Â So we decided to make this fun handprint craft of her new favorite animal.
You need:
- Pink & light grey card stock
- Black permanent marker
- Pencil
- Glue
- Scissors
- Googly eye
- Pink feathers
- Ruler (if you are like me & can’t draw a straight line)
Now lets get started:
Start by tracing your child’s hand (the body) onto the pink card stock. Â Next draw your flamingo’s legs (one bent) & neck/head. Â Cut all of the pieces out.
Now you need to glue all of your flamingo pieces onto the grey card stock.
Now just glue on the googly eye & feathers. Also color the tip of the nose black.
Did you know Flamingo’s are born grey or white? It can take up to 3 years to reach their color (which can be pink, orange, or red).
