Kids Love Animal Crafts

Ten fun, creative projects provide students with a hands-on way to learn about animals. Accompanied by colorful images and patterns that are easy to reproduce using a copier or printer, accessible step-by-step directions instruct students how to make such unique crafts as a flying bird ornament, a giraffe statue out of aluminum foil, and a butterfly hand fan using inexpensive materials found at home or in the classroom. A Learn More section with current books and websites encourage further exploration into the animal kingdom.
