For our craft activity this week we created a shape person.  Then added a fun hairstyle (various styles included in template).

 Materials:

  • Shape Person Template downloaded & printed (click image above)
  • construction paper (your choice of color)
  • glue
  • scissors
  • crayons
  • marker
  • optional- googly eyes

Teaching Moments:

  • As your child colors the shapes, ask him/her to name the shapes and colors.  If they don’t know them, then tell it to them.  Ask them to name the shape/color back to you.
  • After you have glued the pieces on your paper, review the parts of the body with your child and label the picture.

Suggestions:

  • Have your child color the shapes prior to cutting out.
  • While your child colors one page, cut out the shapes on the page he/she just colored.
  • Follow up or start your craft with a book.
