This is a simple craft that is very inexpensive since most of the items you probably have on hand! My sister in law made these last year for Easter and used them as place cards at the dining table. For place cards, just write names on a slip of paper and glue to the top of the chick.
Supplies
Yarn- thick and fuzzy yarn works best
Glue Gun
Googly Eyes
Orange Construction Paper
Scissors
Card Board or Thick Paper
Instructions
Wrap the yarn around cardboard or a thick pad of paper. I used a map that I had laying out that was about 4″ wide. Wrap the yarn several times to make the chick nice and fluffy.
Slide the yarn off the paper while keeping it in a loop. Cut each end of the yarn to make a pile of yarn strands that are approximately equal in length.
Once you have a nice pile of yarn strands, take a one strand and tie it around the middle of the stack.
Tie the knot really taught to make the yarn puff up into a ball.
You should end up with a cute little yarn pom pom! Use the glue gun to glue on the googly eyes. Cut a small triangle out of the construction paper for the beak and glue that on. For the feet, I cut out two large triangles. I glued them together and glued them to the pom pom.
This project is fun since you can make a variety of sizes and colors! Let the kids get creative!
