We sure do LOVE chickens!
A farm visit is not complete without some happy chickens running around going about their chicken business.
So, what about making your own chickens out of paper plates?
Plus, this craft incorporates one of our favorite painting techniques, fork painting!

Things youll need
Steps
Draw and cut out a crescent shape from your paper plate.
Round off one end for the head.
Use the leftover paper plate pieces to draw and cut out a wing shape.
Ours looks like a soft triangle.
One thing we LOVE about chickens is how they naturally show up to life in many beautiful colors.
For this example, were painting our chicken body and chicken wing with a light brown craft paint.
But feel free to paint your paper plate chicken any color you like!
Now comes the fun part: fork painting!
Draw and cut out a long rectangular shape from yellow paper.
This is the chickens beak!
Now for the feet!
Chickens have three toes and one claw in the back.
Use a glue stick to glue all of the parts of your chicken together!
Dont forget the googly eyes!
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?A: Because it was free range!
