DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Mother Earth Paper Craft

Tasha got a real kick out of the Mother Earth craft.  It was the first time we'd talked about the planet as "Mother" and she was quite tickled by the idea.  Use this craft as an opportunity to talk about the planet and how it's up to each of us to take care of it.

Materials:

• scissors,
• glue,
• printer,
• paper,
• something to color with (B&W version).

Instructions:

• Print out the template.
