Some of the reasons we love handprint craft activities are that they’re simple and cheap to make! You’ll need some colored paper, scissors, glue, and your child’s little hands. It doesn’t get much easier than that. 

If you’re curious, we prefer using colored card stock over construction paper because we love the vibrant colors of the card stock. If colored card stock isn’t an option, feel free to use construction paper!

Supplies

• Colored cardstock or construction paper
• Scissors
• Glue stick
• Pencil
• Snowy owl craft template (unlock the image at the end of the post to go to the download page)

Directions

Start by downloading the template and printing it out. Once the template is printed, gather the materials for this fun activity. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this snowy owl to life!

Pin

First, guide your child to place the white owl’s face at the top of the owl’s body and glue it in place.

Pin

Glue the owl’s beak so it’s halfway on the face and halfway on the body.

Pin

Next, help your child to make the owl’s eyes by gluing the black circle onto the larger yellow circles.

Pin

Place the completed eyes in the middle of the owl’s white face and glue them down.

Pin

Now, glue the owl’s feet at the bottom of the owl’s body, letting half of the feet hang over the bottom.

Pin

Trace your child’s right and left hands on the gray card stock and cut out.

Finally, please encourage your child to place your child’s handprints, one on each side, with the thumbs pointed up on each side of the owl body, and secure them with glue.

Winter Children’s Books

Reading aloud to kids is one of the easiest ways to bring fun and learning into their lives during the winter months. It gives them unique opportunities to learn and grow, explore different climates, exercise their imagination, and build essential language skills.

Kids can explore stories through different voices and characterizations, allowing for a richer experience than if the story was read silently.

In addition, reading aloud allows children to experience books as living things that contain exciting adventures and unpredictable surprises – something that can be enjoyed regardless of age or culture!

Here are some of the best winter animal books.

Polar Bear Island is a fun book for winter! Polar Bear Island is just that – only for polar bears! That is until Kirby the penguin comes to visit.
