Pancake Day just got a whole lot more exciting! With our printable template, kids are in for a treat with this super fun Flip a Pancake 3D Pancake Day Craft!
This cute Pancake Day activity is a wonderfully creative way for kids to join in the festivities this Shrove Tuesday.
Easy Printable Pancake Crafts
Our fun Flip a Pancake Day Craft comes with a printable template that makes creating your very own tossing pancake scene as easy as pie—or, should I say, as easy as pancakes!
Kids will have loads of fun making a delightful cut and paste kitchen scene, featuring a toy cooker, frying pan, their own handprint and a happy flipping pancake friend.
Of course older children can enjoy cooking and tossing real pancakes. And now, with this fun toss a pancake day craft, younger children can flip their own pancakes too, even if they’re too small to do it with the real thing!
This is such a wonderful way for young children to join in with the Pancake Day celebrations. With this easy-to-use template, kids will be crafting their very own paper pancakes in no time!
(You can also use this fun craft to introduce the traditions of Mardi Gras and the start of Lent, in such an engaging and playful way.)
Bouncing Paper Pancakes Craft!
These sweet pancakes are extra special because they’re super bouncy bobble heads! They’re attached to a simple paper spring, that lets them wibble-wobble around!
Kids will love making their own fun little bobble head pancake pal to celebrate Shrove Tuesday. Push them down and they pop right back up! Just like a real pancake being tossed in the air!
It’s such a fun and interactive 3D Pancake Day craft!
Add a Personal Touch with Handprints!
This fun Pancake Day craft can be enjoyed in two ways. The printable template has everything you need to make a 3D flip a pancake craft or you can add an extra special touch with a handprint!
Kids can cut around their handprint and add it to the pancake day art. It will look like it’s their hand holding the frying pan handle, and tossing the pancake!
The addition of a handprint is a lovely personal touch and a super sweet way to celebrate Happy Pancake Day!
A Fine Motor Skills Workout!
This is a fun cut and paste 3D Pancake Day craft that gives kids lots of opportunity to develop their fine motor skills.
Cutting out the pancake shape, frying pan, cooker and more is a great way for children to practice their scissor skills. Pasting all the template pieces into place are fun activities to strengthen hand eye co-ordination too.
It’s a fun way to build skills and enjoy the Fat Tuesday festivities!

4. Position the hand fingers pointing down, on the right where you want the frying pan’s handle to be. Just glue the back of hand, leaving the fingers and thumb free.
5. Now glue the pan handle into the hand and bend the fingers and thumb over to hold it.
6. Glue the frying pan onto the other end of the handle.
7. Glue the pancake’s hands and eyes on and draw a happy smile.
