Materials

  • Colored cardstock or construction paper
  • Glue stick
  • Brown marker
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Reindeer template

Instructions

  • Download the reindeer template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
  • Begin making the reindeer head by gluing the inner ears in the middle of the outer ears.
  • Next, glue the eyes to the center of the reindeer's head.
  • Glue the nose just below the eyes, near the bottom of the head.
  • Place the small pink cheeks on either side of the nose, by the bottom of the eyes, and glue in place.
  • Use a brown marker to draw the eyebrows on above the eyes.
  • Trace your child’s hand onto the dark brown paper two times and cut each handprint out.
  • Add glue to the bottom of the child's handprints and glue behind the reindeer's head, with each hand slightly angled outward. These are the reindeer's antlers.
