PAPER CUP CHICK
a preschool version of the spring chicken

Materials
yellow paper cup
scissors
white glue
google eyes
orange, yellow construction paper

optional: pink construction paper, feathers, green pipe cleaner

There are a couple different options for your little paper cup chicks. We will give you instructions for the basic paper version. (Adding feathers is as simple as gluing them on instead of using construction paper.)

1. Cut yellow construction paper into strips about two inches wide. Have your child cut a fringe on one side of the construction paper (to represent feathers). This is a great first cutting project since the kids practice the hand motion of opening and closing the scissors. My two year olds cut all the fringe on our project.
   
2. With the cup upside down, glue on the strips of fringe yellow to the cup
   
3. Out of Yellow Construction paper - Cut an oval or circle for the face. (You can trace the bottom of the cup or free draw an oval)
4. Cut an oval for the wings - now cut that oval in half to create a pair of wings
5. Cut a small orange triangle for the beak
   
6. Cut an orange heart for the feet. Now cut little triangles to make the "toes"
   

Add embellishments - such as a bow on the head, a bunch of flowers (in which case you will need to use the pink construction paper and pipe cleaner)
