Ah, Penguins, my silly tuxedo clad friends how I love you, love you, love you. So adorable flopping around on the ice, who could help but giggle as you waddle around and slide down giant hills on your bellies. I don't know that there is currently another animal so loved by children and Hollywood at the moment. With great penguin animation like Happy Feet and the Penguins from Madagascar, kids would love to make penguin crafts all day long. Just watch out for those mean old leopard seals, they may eat your penguins if they don't realize they're made of craft materials first.
To make this paper penguin face mask, just print out this printable penguin template and follow the included instructions.
Outer skin of gourd must be removed before painting. To do this, soak gourd in water for several hours, then rub with sandpaper or a rough pot cleaner. Remove all rough spots. And adult should cut the gourd according to design and clean. it out. After and adult is finished cutting and cleaning the gourd, glue on the top (head) before painting. Paint the stem orange for the beak ....paint a white stomach and everything else is black. When dry, give the gourd two coats of shellac. For the penguin, cut feet from felt scraps and glue to body (see pattern, sketch c). It may be necessary to glue the penguin to a cardboard circle to help him stand.
