Materials

  • Colored cardstock or construction paper
  • Glue stick
  • Scissors
  • Elf template

Instructions

  • Download the girl elf template, print it, and cut out the pieces.
  • Begin by gluing the eyes to the insides of the eyelashes.
  • Glue the nose below the eyes, in the middle of the face.
  • Next, glue the hair to the top portion of the head.
  • Position the head to the front and bottom portion of the hat and glue it in place.
  • Now, glue the hat trim to the place where the hat and hair meet.
  • Place the pom on the pointed end of the hat and glue it down.
  • Next, glue the collar to the top portion of the shirt.
  • Glue the head to the top of the shirt collar.
  • Trace your child’s hand onto colored paper two times and cut them out. Position the fingers pointing down and glue the two handprints together, so they're slightly overlapping. This is the back of the girl elf's hair.
  • Finish off by gluing the handprint hair to the back of the girl elf's head.
