- scissors
- printer
- glue
- OPTIONAL:
- something to color with (crayons, paint, markers, etc)
Instructions:
- print template of choice.

out the easy (large) pieces (like the head and body) while you cut out the harder
ones (eyes and arms).

body meet

- Glue the hair and features onto the face
- Glue the earrings (small ovals) beside the face
- If you get stuck, use the small image at the top of this page to
give you an idea of how it goes together.
- If you are working with a large group of children, you may wish to
pre-make an example Opal Oval to display during craft time.
