Materials
Free printable penguin template
White cotton balls (whole or pulled apart)
Glue stick
Printing paper 11x14 or 8x10
Foam beak (or orange paper)
Googly eyes
Scissors
Instructions
Print the penguin craft template. Click on the printable, press CRTL plus the P button on your keyboard. If you are using the longer paper like I did, choose the option to print 11x14.
Use a glue stick to apply a thick layer of glue to the penguin’s head and belly area.
Add cotton balls to the glued section.
Press gently so the cotton sticks well.
Glue on the foam beak and googly eyes to finish your penguin craft.
Allow the craft to dry completely before displaying.
Leave them whole for a fluffy look, or pull them apart for a soft, snow-like texture
Notes
Drying time may vary depending on how much glue is used.
