Handprint Duck Craft Supplies Needed

Cardstock – yellow, orange
Googly eyes, small
2” circle paper punch
Scissor
Glue

Duck Handprint Craft Step by Step Directions

Trace a handprint on yellow cardstock.

Cut out the handprint.

Use 2 inch paper punch to punch a circle out of yellow cardstock.

Use the 2” paper punch to punch a circle out of the same yellow cardstock. If you do not have that size paper punch, a small roll of tape would be about the same size. Simply trace and cut out.

Glue the circle to the thumb of the handprint.

Now, draw simple legs, crown, and beak of the duck on orange cardstock. Cut all of the pieces out.

Glue the feet in place at the bottom of the duck.

Also glue the crown and beak in place on the circle.

Finally, add a googly eye. Such a lovely spring craft idea!
