Looking for a fun bird craft to get creative with the kids? This 3D Crow Craft is super easy and fun to make with our printable template. Because it’s October we’ve enjoyed it as a Halloween crow craft, but it doubles up as a great bird activity for any time of year.

A Fun and Versatile Crow Paper Craft for Kids

This 3D crow craft for kids is packed with character with beady eyes and feathers that lift off the page!

The crow sits against a vibrant sunset background that kids can enjoy painting themselves or you can simply use coloured paper instead.

For Halloween kids can draw on little spiders and cobwebs, or simply leave them off for year-round fun!

It’s a lovely bird craft to inspire imagination and creativity.

Bring Your 3D Crow to Life

What makes this crow craft printable so exciting is its clever 3D design. The layered feathers lift right off the page to give a wonderful three dimensional effect kids will love!

This crow art project for kids is lots of fun and is customisable too. Kids can choose from two different beaks so their crow can look forwards or behind itself and there are also three different eyes to pick from too.

Little artists can also enjoy painting their own sunset background for this crow cut and paste craft or simply mount it on coloured paper instead.

It’s a brilliant crow craft idea for kids of all ages either at home or in the classroom.

Simple Crow Template Kids Will Love

This printable crow craft template comes in two options. There’s a pre-coloured version for quick and easy assembly, and a black-and-white version for kids to colour and decorate themselves.

Whether at home or in the classroom, this crow craft with template gives children a chance to explore art in creative ways while keeping things simple for parents and teachers.

Easy Crow Halloween Craft and Beyond

While this makes a fantastic Halloween bird craft or raven craft, it’s also great year-round too.

Use it for your Halloween party, for farm units, story-inspired lessons, or as an autumn crow craft to celebrate the fall season, or a fun project in spring when you’re exploring black birds or other wildlife.

Why not team it up with our fun Scarecrow Puppets or Basket of Corn Craft?

Throughout the year, teachers can use them to create a wonderful bulletin board display or use them as Halloween decorations too.

How to Make a Crow Craft for Preschoolers – Step-by-Step Instructions

Paint a Sunset Background

Step 1 – If you are painting a sunset background, squeeze a small dollop of red paint at the top of a white sheet of paper, orange paint in the middle and yellow paint at the bottom.

Step 2 – Using a sponge or large brush sweep across the page, working your way from top to bottom.

Build a 3D Crow

Step 1 – When your sunset background is dry, glue the body of the crow (part 1) diagonally across the page. Only glue the semi circle, leave the tail un-glued and bend it upwards.

Step 2 – Apply glue to the semi circle of body part two and line it up on top of body part one. (Do not glue the spiky feathers) Then bend the end feathers upwards.
