Red-nosed Reindeer

Today I want to offer you, little artist, a DIY of an animal you can often find in Christmas tales.

Let me give you a hint, he has a red nose!

Can you guess what animal it is?

Yes, it’s Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer!

Do you know how many reindeer Santa has?

He has nine! Can you name some of them? 

MATERIALS

• A quarter of a beige construction paper (14 cm/11 cm)
• Brown construction paper
• White cardboard
• Cotton balls
• Black marker, red marker
• Googly eyes (optional)
• A glue stick and scissors

STEP 1

• Fold the beige construction paper lengthwise.
• Cut it in half.
• Fold one of the halves widthwise.
• Cut a “U” shape in the folded half.

STEP 2

• Now you have to fold the top parts of the “U” to make the paws.

          *Look closely at the picture

STEP 3

• Use your black marker to colour the end of each paw.
• Glue each paw on your white cardboard, like on the picture.

STEP 4

• Take the other piece of beige construction paper, roll it and tape it to the back (the head).
• Cut a tail shape and two antlers in your brown construction paper.
• Glue the tail to the back and the antlers on the head
• Add the googly eyes and draw a red nose.

THERE YOU GO!

You can now glue the cotton balls on your white cardboard to make it look like snow.

I think my reindeer is beautiful, and I am sure yours is too! 

I hope you had fun making this activity with me!

Come back soon!
