Instructions

  • Print the template and gather the materials for this fun activity.

  • Use a marker to color in the cheeks.
  • Glue the grass piece to the bottom front of the chick’s head.

  • Finally, glue the wings to the top edge of the basket, just under the chick, with one wing on each side so it looks like it's popping up out of the grass.
