🖌️ How To Make Rudolph Paper Craft

Step 1: Paint the clothespins with the brown paint, and allow to dry while you assemble the rest of Rudolf.

Step 2: Glue each googly on to one brown paper banner.

Step 3: Glue the red jewel to the point of the red paper banner.

Step 4: Once the clothespins are dry clip them to the top to complete the reindeer.

💡 Pro Tip: Use a light pencil to outline the full build in advance so that kids can follow a path, which helps maintain structure and positioning accuracy.

🧑‍🎨 Rudolph Lessons

One of the reasons I love doing Rudolph crafts with children is because of the many valuable life lessons he teaches. Here are 5 life lessons that Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer teaches kids:
Don't Judge. Rudolph teaches kids to embrace diversity and not to judge others by the way that they look.
You can't escape your problems. No matter where you go, your problems will follow you. It's better to face them head-on. Or, in Rudolph's case nose-on.
It feels good to help others. Children learn the importance of giving rather than receiving.
Just because your teased doesn't mean you aren't special. Rudolph was able to help Santa because he was different. This means whether a child is picked on for being a dork, loser, or outcast, they can still be special.
Adults make mistakes too. Nobody is perfect. Rudolph's father learns that he made a mistake trying to hide his son's nose. Kids learn that even adults aren't always perfect.
