How to Make Rocking Chick Paper Craft
Start by cutting a circle from a piece of white paper and fold it in half. To create the look of a cracked eggshell, carefully cut small triangles along the folded edge.
Next, cut out the chick template from yellow construction paper and assemble the pieces as shown in the reference image.
To make the chick’s eyes, cut two small circles from black or white paper. If using white paper, use a marker to shade the inner part, giving the eyes a more defined look.
Once the chick is fully assembled, secure it to the back of the cracked eggshell using glue.
Allow it to dry.
Then gently rock the paper craft back and forth to see your little chick “hatch” from its egg!
