Supplies needed:
Penguin Newspaper Craft Pattern <—–Get the pattern in our shop. blue, white and orange cardstock newspaper black paint sponge painting brush paper plate googly eyes snowflake stickers (optional) scissors glue
Tutorial:
1. Dab paper plate with paint
Begin by pouring a small amount of black paint on your paper plate. Use your sponge dabber painting brush to dab and paint a sheet of newspaper. Let it sit to dry completely.
2. Print & cut out pattern
Print out the penguin newspaper craft pattern. Use the template to cut out the penguin body and arms from your black painted newspaper. Then cut out the belly and eyes from unpainted newspaper. Lastly, cut out the beak from orange construction paper. (NOTE: Purchasing the template is optional. You can cut out your own pieces from the newspaper.)
3. Make snowy hill
Tear off a section of your white cardstock to use for a snowy hill. Glue the snowy hill at the bottom of your blue background cardstock.
4. Glue all pieces to the paper
Glue the penguin pattern pieces onto your background. Start by gluing the penguin body at the bottom of your paper. Then glue the belly at the bottom of the body. Next glue the eyes, beak and arms onto your penguin. The arms are my favorite because kids can position them in so many different ways giving their penguin craft some extra personality.
5. Decorate with snowflakes
Finish your cute penguin newspaper craft by adding snowflake stickers around your paper.
Your penguin newspaper craft is complete!
