Penguin Tissue Paper Craft For Kids [Free Template]
All activities require adult supervision. By using this site, you agree to our terms of use.
Fine motor skills are important for kids because they help with the development of hand-eye coordination, dexterity, and problem-solving skills.
These skills are essential for kids as they grow and begin to learn new tasks.
Activities like this penguin tissue paper craft are a fun way for kids to work on their fine motor skills!
This craft requires kids to use small pieces of tissue paper, which helps to improve their dexterity.
While kids may like to simply crumple up the tissue paper and stick it on for this craft, pressing down gently will work their fine motor skills even more!
Download the free printable template and make this cute winter craft at home or in the classroom.
Also, make sure you look through all of our penguin activities for kids for more fun ideas.

Directions
Download the penguin template and print it out on colored cardstock of your choice.
Glue the tissue paper squares in each of the penguin’s parts. Each section will specify which color tissue paper to glue there.
Next, take the penguin’s beak and glue it in the middle of the face, where the white and black tissue paper meets.

Finish off by gluing the feet just below the ends of the legs.
That’s it!
This is a simple winter animal craft that is different than the standard papercraft.
Winter Theme For Kids
Continue the learning and fun by creating a winter unit study. We have some simple ideas to get you started that the kids will love.
The very first activity we like to start a new theme with is reading. Reading aloud to your kids has lots of great benefits that can help your kids in life and school! It can help them learn new words, increase their focus, and help them learn more about the world around them.
Crafting is another great activity to keep the kids engaged and off the screens. It can give them a great opportunity to be creative, to concentrate, and to improve their fine motor skills.
Below are some of our favorite winter crafts for kids:
Puffy Paint Snowman Craft – It’s winter and the kids are getting cabin fever. Keep them busy with this easy snowman craft, made from DIY puffy paint. It’s so simple and fun to do!
