robin craft


We have been seeing a ton of robins in our backyard! So to go along with our Spring theme, we made a robin. I cut out the pattern pieces and prepped the paper and then had Ella trace the pattern onto the paper and cut each piece out. This craft was a good way to practice those scissor skills and work on those fine motor skills which are necessary for handwriting.



materials-
brown, red and orange construction paper
googly eye
pencil
pattern
scissors
glue

directions-
1. print pattern onto card stock
2. cut out pattern pieces
3. cut construction paper a little bigger than the pattern piece
4. have your child trace and cut out the pattern pieces
5. glue the red belly onto one half the brown circle
6. glue the body down onto the belly
7. glue on beak, eye, tail feather and feet
