DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Camel Paper Craft

This is a simple cut and paste paper craft good "just for fun", a desert theme or a mammals theme.
 

Materials:

• something to colour with if using the B&W version,
• scissors,
• glue,
• paper.
   
• You can use brass tacks ("brads") instead of glue to attach the legs if you want them to be moveable.
   

Instructions:

• Print out the template of choice -- there is a choice of black and white or color.
   
• Color (where appropriate) and cut out the template pieces.
   
• Glue the camel together in the following order:
   
  • legs onto the large (brown) body (sort of a squished egg shape)
     
    • one front leg and one back leg on top the body
       
    • one front leg and one back leg behind the body
       
  • neck onto the front of the body
     
  • head onto the neck
     
  • tail onto the back of the body
     
  • tuft of hair onto the top of the hump 

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
   
• 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).
