How to Build Your Own Hedgehog
Supplies Needed
- Hedgehog craft template
- Crayons, markers, or colored pencils
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- White copy paper or construction paper (optional)
Step 1: Color the pieces
Color the hedgehog’s body, head, and feet with crayons, markers, or colored pencils.
You can use different shades of brown or choose completely different colors.
Step 2: Cut out the pieces
Next, cut out all of the pieces.
Don’t worry about cutting perfectly on the lines.
It’s completely fine if there’s a small border around the edges.
Step 3: Add the feet
Start with the fluffy body piece.
Position two feet near the front of the body and the other two near the back. Then, glue them in place.
Step 4: Finish your hedgehog
Glue the head onto the front of the body.
Now your hedgehog is finished!
