Penguin crafts are the perfect Winter craft for kids! Penguins definitely have the cute factor and they fit in so well with winter projects.
Here are a few more penguin crafts:

Making a cardboard tube penguin using our printable template couldn't be easier. It is such a fun craft to make and play with. Why not make a whole family of penguins!
This cardboard tube penguin craft for preschoolers is part of a collection of 5 adorable cardboard tube animals holding hearts that we will be sharing. We also have a unicorn craft, bear craft , monkey craft and hippo craft.
If you have any cardboard tubes left after making all these crafts you might like our toilet paper roll peacock craft too.

As always gather all your supplies before starting your penguin craft. You will need to print the penguin craft template (found at the bottom of the page) onto paper or thin card. There are two pages included in the download, one has all the pieces needed for the penguin craft and the other is full of eyes that can be used for any of our animal cardboard tube crafts.
Start by painting a cardboard tube black. Leave to dry. Preschoolers will love getting messy as they cover their cardboard tube in paint!
Colour the penguin features from the printable penguin template using markers, crayons or paint. Cut them out. Use the image below for colour suggestions.
Stick all the cut out pieces of the penguin onto the black cardboard tube. You can use the image below to help if you are unsure about where to place the features.
