How To Make Paper Reindeer Craft
1. Take light brown construction paper and draw the outline for reindeer craft. Cut it out using scissors.
2. Use light pink construction paper to cut out the mouth and dark brown paper to make the nose of your handprint reindeer craft.
3. Paste the mouth and nose on the body of the reindeer craft.
4. Next, using a black sharpie, draw the eyes of the reindeer. Use a brown sharpie to outline one side of the mouth and shade face and body of the reindeer to give it dimension.
5. Use a white pen to make a small oval on the nose of the reindeer craft.
6. Trace the handprints of your child on dark brown craft paper and cut them out to make the antlers of the reindeer handprint craft.
7. Trace outer ears for reindeer craft on light brown paper and inner ears on dark brown paper. Cut them out and glue the inner ears on the outer ears.
8. Next, paste the ears of the reindeer on the handprints.
9. Glue the handprints on the body of the reindeer craft.
10. Lastly, to make it fit for the holiday season, cut a small red bow and yellow bells from craft paper and glue it just below the mouth of the reindeer. Younger kids can either use stickers or sharpie to draw out the bell and the bow.
That’s it! Your handprint Reindeer craft is ready! Such simple crafts are a great way to boost fine motor skills and creativity.
