Free Printable Craft Templates for Kids
The papercraft farm is made of 7 models that come together as a little farm: a barn, a farmhouse, a chicken coop, a silo, a tractor, a fence and gate, and a doghouse with a feed trough. Every model has glue tabs and a line key that shows where to cut and where to fold. The printed walls are the finished building, so it stands up right after folding. If kids want to design their own, they can use the coloring version.
There are 7 more farm crafts to go with it: stand-up farm animals with 12 animals and a play mat, finger puppets, paper plate animals, a banner with 12 pennants, a hatching chick card, animal-head bookmarks and a paper egg carton with chicks. Depending on the template, they're made for ages 3 to 6, with a little help on the trickier models. That way you'll always find something that fits, whether it's for preschool, elementary school or a rainy afternoon at home.
Looking for more ideas? In the Squishy World you'll find soft paper squishies to make and squeeze, including 12 farm squishies from a piglet to a hay bale. The site also has printable masks that kids can color, cut out and wear, for dress-up or a little play. All templates are free and print nicely in color or black and white.
