DLTK's Holiday Crafts for Kids
Veteran (Soldier) Paper Craft
Paper crafts make terrific and simple projects
decorations that even toddlers can help put together. For beginner
scissor users, allow them to cut out the simple pieces like the
body, legs and feet while you cut out the more complicated pieces like
the poppy and medal.

Materials:
 |
printer, |
 |
paper, |
 |
scissors, |
 |
glue, and |
 |
something to colour with. |
Instructions:
 | Print out the template of choice
|
 | Colour pieces, as necessary.
|
 | Cut out the pieces. This step may require
adult assistance. I usually let young children cut out the large
pieces while I cut out the smaller pieces
|
 | Glue the soldier together as follows:
 | glue the body to the legs (there is a tab on the legs for applying
glue) |
 | glue the shoes on the legs (again using the tabs for gluing) |
 | glue the head onto the body |
 | glue the hat onto the head |
 | glue the arm in a saluting position onto the body (use the tab for
applying glue)

Templates:

 | Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one
page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers). |
