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 have a beginning user of scissors, let them cut
out the easy (large) pieces (like the head and body) while you cut out the harder
ones (neck and ears).
- glue the pieces together.
- Glue the arms and legs onto the body (the largest rectangle)
- Glue the neck onto the top of the body
- Glue the head onto the top of the neck
- Glue the ears onto the sides of the head
- 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 Robbie Rectangle to display during craft time.
