Instructions
Use scissors to cut one craft popsicle stick in half. Lay four popsicle sticks side by side on a flat surface.
Glue one half of the cut popsicle stick to the top half of the four sticks and the other half on the bottom. This will hold the sticks together to form the body of the fox.
Paint the popsicle sticks gray. Make sure to cover the entire popsicle stick. Let it dry.
Download the template. Print and then cut out the template pieces for the fox’s face, chest fur, tail, and ears.
You can cut out the fox face and chest fur and use those directly on the craft. Or, you can trace them onto any other color of construction paper, like black or orange.
Trace 2 of the ears and 2 paws onto pieces of cardboard. Cut them out. Paint them gray.
Trim the white ears template just a little smaller than the gray one. Glue the white on top of the gray.
Make the tail by tracing the template onto a piece of cardboard. Paint the tail gray. Once dry, paint the tip white.
Trace the nose onto colored construction paper and then cut it out.
Glue the fox’s face and chest hair to the body. Then, glue the ears to the back of the body. Allow the glue to dry.
Glue on the googly eyes, paws, and nose.
Use a pen or marker to draw on the fox’s mouth and toes on his paws.
Glue the tail to the back of the fox so that the tail sticks out on one side.
