Hey guys! Today I’m posting our printable Spider Monkey craft! Lorelai added this one to our list of crafts after reading a book to Maddie that had a spider monkey in it. This one came out really cute. I didn’t include a branch in the printable because I couldn’t get it to fit. Cutting a […]
Mandrill Printable Craft
Ah, the Mandrill. We have a couple of these at our local zoo and they are always fun to watch. Sometimes they are sitting there like sentries, watching us, and other times they are roaming. We did this craft last week and it turned out so cute. Note: the face of this mandrill is pretty […]
Baboon Printable Craft
On our mission to do an African Savannah theme during our spring break, we came across the baboon! This cheeky (hehe) primate was fun to find and design, and Lorelai enjoyed painting & assembling him. Grab your printable copy below and check out the fun baboon facts at the bottom of this point. Enjoy! Open […]
Gorilla Printable Craft
Good morning, crafty folks! Today I’m sharing this gorilla craft that my six-year-old painted yesterday. I love how she used her watercolor paints here to blend the blue, purple, and black paints together. She made this cartoon gorilla craft a few years ago, so we were due for a newer, more realistic one. Print below […]
Howler Monkey Printable Craft
How about this Howler Monkey Craft? We have made several monkey crafts in the past — Monkey, Circus Monkey, Paper Plate Monkey, Orangutan Craft — but never a howler monkey. My six-year-old really loved this one. She did notice that he only has 3 legs, and I explained it’s because of the angle of the […]
Indri Printable Craft
The Indri, a large species of lemur, is an endangered animal that is found only on the secluded island of Madagascar. We did a lemur craft at the beginning of this year, and Lore was happy to re-visit it in a roundabout way. We learned all about indris and looked at a ton of pictures […]
Orangutan Printable Craft
Meet Rango, our sweet baby orangutan craft! Lorelai named him Rango after she was finished gluing him together. She was so pleased that I made a baby and not an adult. I’ll have to make more infants in the future – she really was pleased! I did most of the cutting on this one (as […]
Printable Circus Craft: Juggling Monkey
It’s circus time! I surprised Lorelai this weekend with five fun, new circus printables. To say she was excited is an understatement. We painted them all at once (doing one color at a time) while Daddy was out running errands. We are cutting one each day and will be posting them on the blog. Join […]
Printable Gorilla Craft
Open Gorilla Printable This craft takes me back to my days spent playing Donkey Kong with my brothers and cousins. I had originally intended for both of his arms to be pointing down, but I must have inverted one of them while trying to get them to fit into a single printable… so now he […]
Printable Monkey Craft
Lorelai was up at 7 am this morning asking to do the monkey craft printable I had sitting on the kitchen table. We were out on the patio in our PJ’s painting this morning. Turned out pretty cute, I think! 🙂 Directions/Printable at the bottom of this post. Open Monkey Printable Materials We Used: Card […]
