Materials:
- paper,
- scissors,
- printer,
- glue,
- OPTIONAL:
- something to color with (crayons, paint, markers, etc)
Instructions:
- print template of choice.
- Cut out the template pieces. This may require adult assistance.

- If you get stuck, use the small image at the top of this page to give you an idea of how it goes together.
- Note that for this color buddy, the smile is part of the tree trunk template, not a separate piece you glue on.
- If you are working with a large group of children, you may wish to pre-make an example to display during craft time.
Templates:
