Earth Man Craft
We’re sharing today what could possibly be the cutest Earth Day craft. This Earth Man Craft is unbelievably adorable, so easy to make, too, and the perfect craft to celebrate our Earth. He’s even holding our heart in his hands.
We’ve included a Free Printable Earth Template that you can color in however you’d like. We chose paint for this craft, but you could use markers, crayons, colored pencils. You are free to color it in whatever way you want to color the Earth.
Earth Day Earth Man Craft
To make our Earth guys you will first need to print the Earth template.
You will also need coloring supplies. We chose paint. As well as red and white cardstock, pipe cleaners, medium sized googly eyes, a black marker, scissors, and tape. We used self-adhesive googly eyes on this craft, but if you don’t have those then you will also need glue.
Earth Man Craft Supplies Needed
- Earth Template
- Cardstock – red, white
- Pipe cleaners – blue, green
- Coloring supplies (paint, crayons, etc.) – blues, greens
- Black marker
- Googly eyes, medium
- Tape
- Scissors
Earth Guy Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin by printing the Earth template on heavy white cardstock.
Color in the Earth. We chose paint for ours. We then let the paint dry completely.
When the paint is dry, cut out the Earth.
You will also need to cut out a heart shape from the red cardstock.
Now, you will need 2 pipe cleaners for each Earth guy. Cut the pipe cleaners in half.
Flip the Earth over to the back and tape two of the pipe cleaners in place for arms.
Tape the other two pipe cleaners in place for legs. Bend the very end of the legs to make feet.
Next, add googly eyes. Also, draw a simple mouth with a black marker.
Finally, tape one end of the pipe cleaner arms to the heart. Then bring the other arm to the heart and tape that in place, as well.
These Earth guys are such a fun way to celebrate and show our love to our Earth. And our Earth’s love back to us.
