Here is what you’ll need:
- Free printable coloring page template (the download link is located at the bottom of this page).
- Crayons, markers or colored pencils
- Construction paper
- Scissors
- Glue
Follow these simple steps to create your own puppy.
Start by printing out the coloring page onto white printer paper or cardstock. If using standard printer paper, I would recommend mounting the final project onto a piece of construction paper.
Next, grab your favorite coloring supplies and let your imagination go wild! You can color in the dog the typical puppy colors or feel free to get as creative and crazy as you’d like!
Once everything has been colored in, cut out each piece of the dog using scissors. This is not just a fun activity but also a great opportunity for kids to work on their scissor skills.
Now it is time to assemble. Take out your construction paper and start gluing the pieces of the dog together. For reference, I have included a small diagram of the final puppy at the bottom of the page.
And now your adorable puppy craft is complete! Whether it ends up on your fridge or on the classroom wall, it is sure to bring a smile to anyone who walks by.
Favorite Printable Supplies:
These are a few of my favorite supplies that I use for printable games and activities:
- White Cardstock: For most projects, I recommend printing onto cardstock. It is much more durable than standard printer paper and often produces a higher quality print.
- Crayons: A staple in any crafting household. Crayola is always the top notch choice!
- Kid Friendly Safety Scissors: These are perfect for little kids learning how to use scissors. They cut paper but not fingers or hair!
- Glue Sticks: These disappearing purple glue sticks are by far my favorite! I love buying them in bulk since we use them so often!
- Lamination Machine: Laminating printables are a great way to make them last longer. If you are planning on laminating to make games reusable, be sure to get a bunch of dry erase markers as well.
- Dry Erase Pockets: Dry erase pockets are a great alternative to using a lamination machine when wanting to make printable games and activities reusable.
- Printer: A high quality printer is always recommended for the best results. If you are in need of a printer this Brother Wireless Printer is a great choice.
