Colour in the Winter Animal Design
Step 1: Colour in the printable Winter Animal design.
Children can use their favourite medium to colour in the designs. In this tutorial, for speed and ease of use, we’ve used watercolour paints from a palette.
Cut out the Design
Step 2: Carefully cut out the animal design.
Attach the Arms to the Template
Step 3: Locate the dotted lines on the arms and fold the flaps towards the back of the animals arm.
Step 4: Apply glue to the folded flaps and attach the arms to the animal.
The arms will now open and close.
Fold the Paper Christmas Present
Step 5: Locate the dotted lines on the present. Fold the ‘doors’ towards the white blank space on the back of the present design.
Write a Christmas Message
Step 6: Fill the white space with a festive message.
Close the Present
Step 7: Open the arms of the winter animal.
Open the present.
Fold the doors of the present around the animals arms and seal with a sticker or a piece of ribbon (see Printable Present Christmas Cards).
