Awesome Build A Unicorn Craft (Magical Printable Fun)

Build A Unicorn free printable craft for preschoolers and toddlers

ย 

To go along with my recentย build a fairy printable, I decided to share a cute little unicorn as well. Itโ€™s a simple build a unicorn craft that would make a great friend for the fairy.

Just like the fairy, itโ€™s an easy craft you can do at home, in which your kids will need to cut out and correctly put together the pieces to make a unicorn! Magical!

This craft is great for toddlers and preschoolers because itโ€™s so simple to do!

It would also be great little unicorn activity if youโ€™re having a magical unicorn themed party!

Iโ€™ve created quiteย a lot more charactersย and will be uploading them when I can โ€“ so beย sure to check back regularly.

What Skills Can Your Children Learn And Practice?

ย

ย 

When making this build a unicorn craft, your children will have the chance toย practice and develop some skillsย such as:

ย 

  • Cutting Skillsย โ€“ if you feel theyโ€™re ready, you can let them have a go at cutting out the pieces all by themselves โ€“ theyโ€™ll need to be careful and have good scissor control if they want to cut out the pieces neatly
  • Fine Motor Skillsย โ€“ when theyโ€™re sticking and picking up and moving the body parts and placing them where they need to go
  • Pencil Controlย โ€“ if you print off the black and white version they can practice their pencil control and develop hand strength through coloring.

This simple unicorn craft will also give them a chance toย practice their concentration and perseverance skillsย as they may find it tricky to place the pieces exactly where they want them to go.

How To Prepare This Build A Unicorn Craft?

First youโ€™re going to want to download the unicorn craft printables by clicking on the download box at the bottom of the page โ€“ Iโ€™ve made a color and a black and white version!

Other Materials Youโ€™ll Need:

ย 

  • Safety scissors
  • Cardย Stockย orย Craft Paper
  • Glue
  • Someย coloring pencilsย orย pens

Once youโ€™ve downloaded the templates, youโ€™ll need to print them off onto paper or card.

Then, you can cut them out. Or if youโ€™d like your children to get some cutting practice, you can let them have a go.

Then you can stick all the pieces together to build your unicorn.

It can be really nice to let youโ€™re kids have a bit of free rein here and see if they can work it out โ€“ kind of like a puzzle.

If theyโ€™re struggling, the order Iโ€™d do it in is:

  1. Stick the head on the body
  2. Stick the ears on the head
  3. Stick the hair on the head
  4. Stick the horn on the hair
  5. Stick the legs on back of the body
  6. Stick the tail to the back of the body

(I expect you could have worked that out but I do like to be thoroughโ€ฆ)

The finished unicorn should look something like this:

If you want to you could always laminate them and use them as a puzzle. That way the different parts would be kept nice and they can use them again and again.

Iโ€™veย also created some more cute charactersย which I will be releasing in the coming weeks so they could use them together in aย mix and match gameย as well (if you donโ€™t want to miss them youย can turn on notifications by clicking on the bellย in the bottom right corner).

ย 

After that youโ€™re all done!

Let your kids practice their cutting and sticking skills in a simple and fun way!

But Waitโ€ฆ Thereโ€™s Also A Black And White Build A Unicorn Craft
