Fun Penguin Hat Craft

How adorable is this Penguin Hat Craft? We have a total soft spot for penguins, there’s something about them that’s so characterful and irresistible! If it was possible to have a penguin as a pet we’d be first to sign up! As we can’t have a real penguin we have to make do with lots of super cute penguin crafts instead. These penguin hats are going straight to the top of our favourites list. Who wouldn’t want to wear a gorgeous penguin headband like this?

These paper penguin hats are really easy to make and we’ve provided a Free Printable Template too so you can dive straight into your craft session with no fiddly preparations needed. This is such a cute Winter craft for kids and great to go alongside a polar region study unit or for World Penguin Day, which is celebrated on 25th April each year. 

We’ve got lots of other gorgeous Winter Crafts that would work really well with these Penguin Hats.  Why not make a Polar Bear Puppet, fun Pop Up Penguins, gorgeous Folded Icicles or pretty 3D Snowflakes? They all come with free printable templates too.
