How to Build Your Own Space Alien
Supplies Needed
- Space alien craft template
- Crayons, markers, or colored pencils
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- White copy paper or construction paper (optional)
Step 1: Color the pieces
Color all of the alien pieces with crayons, markers, or colored pencils.
Yours can be any colors you’d like!
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: Start with the spacesuit
If you’re using a background, center the spacesuit on the page and glue it down.
Step 4: Add the head
Glue the alien’s head onto the top of the spacesuit so it overlaps the collar.
Step 5: Finish your alien
Glue the eyes onto the alien’s face.
Then, add the planet to the front of the spacesuit.
Now your friendly space alien is finished!
