Fine Motor Activity ~Using scissors with Preschoolers

My kiddos are currently obsessed with using scissors.  Did you see our super simple Circle Rainbows?  Which lead us to creating these little Easter Chicks.

Have the kiddos trace and cut out a yellow circle.  Then encourage them to make small cuts all the way around the edge of the circle, creating feathers.

 Glue on a couple eyes and a beak and your little Easter chick is finished!

Tip:   Some of the kids found it helpful to trace a small circle in the center of their paper.  This will give them a reference on how deep to make their cuts.

 They are so adorable!  The best part is…they only took 5 minutes!

There are so many crafts floating around on Pinterest using clothespins as legs. However, these these little pigs are my current favorite.  I totally need to go buy more clothespins.  Love them!
