Materials

  • Yellow construction paper
  • Pastel foam sheets
  • Paper cups
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
  • Glue stick
  • Cotton balls
  • Google eyes

Instructions

  • Begin by cutting a zigzag pattern around the top rim of 2 paper cups. This creates a neat 'hatching' effect.
  • Get your chick's body ready! Trace its outline onto yellow foam and then use scissors to cut it out carefully.
  • Next, we'll give our chick a fluffy belly! Cut a small petal shape from your yellow construction paper. Cut the chick’s beak and little hair from an orange foam sheet
  • For the egg, use the yellow paper to cut out two thin strips in a zigzag pattern.
  • With a mix of your colored foam sheets, cut small circles to add a decorative touch to your craft.
  • Create a fluffy nest for your chick with some cotton balls inside your cup.
  • Then, it's time for your chick to hatch! Add the eyes, beak, hair, wings, and legs – and watch its personality shine!
  • Decorate the paper cup with the small circles you cut out for a festive and colorful nest.
