Directions

Here are the simple steps for making a simple crown. 

1. Download the pdf file (below). 
2. Print the crown templates onto card stock. I like to use white paper so the children can color their own crown. You can also print them onto colored paper for different uses and themes. 
3. Cut out the crown.
4. There is a strip below the crown with the animal’s name on it. You can attach this to the crown to go around the head. Or cut a strip of construction paper or use a sentence strip. 
5. Attach the strip to the sides of the crown using glue or tape. 
6. I prefer to attach one side and then fit it to the child’s head and cut it to size. Then, attach the other side. 

 

 

Other Variations

Do you want to make your own version of a crown? Print one page of the printable pdf and use it as a pattern to trace the crown shape onto other paper. Then, attach a strip and fit it to your child’s head.
