Directions
Download the chick template and print the pages on the colored card stock indicated on each page. Cut out all the pieces. Cut out two small ovals from the pink card stock for the chick’s cheeks.
Fold a small piece of the golden yellow card stock in half and cut a triangle out, leaving the side folded in half intact so it opens into a diamond. This will be the chick’s beak.
Glue the wings to the back of the chick’s body.
Cut 2 medium pom poms in half and fluff it out.
Use the glue to cover the chick’s body in a very thin layer of glue all over. Press a light layer of the yellow pom pom fluff all over the chick’s body. Let dry completely.
Glue the eyes, beak and cheeks on, using the pictures as reference. Glue the two feet to the bottom the chick’s body.
That’s all you have to do to make the fluffiest little chick!
It’s a pretty simple craft, but one note is to make sure you go easy on the pom pom fluff. The first time I made one I put a ton on the yellow fluff, but then the outer layer of “fur” wasn’t stuck to the chick and it was shedding like crazy.
Moral of the story, just be sure to only do a very light layer of the pom pom fur on it. I only used a little over 1 medium pom pom for each chick.
