Kids really enjoy doing these types of crafts because they get to bring one of their favorite animals to life.

How to Make a Movable Cow Paper Doll
What you need:
- Movable Cow Paper Doll Template
- Paper fasteners
- String
- Scissors
- Crayons or markers
- Card Stock Paper (for printing)
- Crafting stick
- Tape or glue
Step by Step Tutorial
Go ahead and print out the template. You can print out the version that already has colored or the black and white version.

Spend time coloring the cow and making sure everything is colored. The cow can be black, brown, or whatever colors your child chooses.

Cut along the outside of the cow, until everything in the template is cut out.

Go ahead and poke a hole where indicated on the cow.

Use tape to glue a craft stick to the back of the cow.

Use the paper fasteners to start putting everything together! The paper fasteners go in the holes where the cow’s legs are!

Make sure you fold the fasteners down so that the cow’s legs stay attached.

Take the strings and put them through the large holes as shown in the picture.

Make sure the loop is large enough and make a little tie at the bottom.

Now your movable cow craft is complete.
