Drawing a reindeer might look very challenging for you?  Don’t be discouraged thinking about your difficulty in sketching this great Christmas creature.  It’s just a matter of creativity and imagination.

Working on the “Reindeer Wall Stick On” is an easy-to-make craft made out of tracing a child’s hand and foot prints. By using the handprints and footprint, you can make a reindeer’s head that can be decorated on the walls of your children’s room.

Because the children will use their own handprint and foot print, they will be making personalized masterpieces that they could treasure.

Supplies:

  • Orange, red, and brown construction paper
  • Pencil
  • Eraser
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Large Wiggly Eyes
  • Double Sided Tape
  • Black marker
Steps:

  1. Let the child trace his or her foot using the brown construction paper.  Adults can help children who still cannot do it by themselves. This will serve as the head of the reindeer.
  2. Then, let the child trace his or her left and right hand prints on the orange construction paper. These will serve as the reindeer’s antlers.
  3. Trace the outline of the foot print and the handprints with a black marker.
  4. Cut along these outlines.
  5. After cutting put the patterns, glue the handprints on the top of the reindeers head.
  6. Glue the wiggly eyes on the reindeer head.
  7. Cut a circle shape on the red construction paper.
  8. Glue the red circle shape in the middle of the reindeer head. This will serve as the nose of the reindeer.
  9. Draw a smiling mouth below the red nose.
  10. Cut the double sided tape and place it at the back of the reindeer. Peel off and stick on the walls of the child’s room.
Fill the children’s rooms with these simple and easy-to-do Christmas decorations and create the Christmas atmosphere that you all may appreciate.
