Fuzzy Chicks Craft!

This is a fun and inexpensive craft that children will enjoy for Spring or Easter. This fuzzy chicks easy kids craft can be made in a variety of colors and sizes. Just use whatever supplies you have on hand! Fluffy and thick yarn works the best though.

Supplies

Yarn- thick and fuzzy yarn works best
Glue Gun
Googly Eyes
Orange Construction Paper
Scissors
Card Board or Thick Paper

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.
