How To Make 3D Bird Craft

Time needed: 15 minutes

    Choose a colored construction paper of your choice to make the body of the DIY bird and cut out a circle from it. 

    We used pink paper for the body and a 12cm diameter for our circle.Craft paper for bird paper craft for kids

  2. Fold the circle

    To make the body of the bird, fold the circle in half.Body of swinging bird craft

  3. Make wings of the bird

    To make feathers, take a craft paper and fold it in accordion folds to get a fan shape. Next, make a small slit on the folded circle near the flat edge to slide the wings in.easy bird craft step by step

  4. Cut out tail feathers and beak for the bird

    Use craft paper in different colors and cut out small hearts from it to make the tail feathers of your simple bird craft. Cut a small triangle for the beak.
