Watch Dora every day on Nick & Nick Jr.

The best gifts are handmade. Make this craft together and give it as a gift to a parent, grandparent, or your child's classmates.

This craft requires extra parent involvement and a watchful eye, because it may require sharp tools or intricate handiwork.

This craft contributes to fine motor skill development through cutting, tracing, drawing, etc.

Awareness and understanding of one's own feelings and the ability to empathize and cooperate with others are crucial for independence and positive self-image.

Preschoolers work on visual-spatial skills by playing memory games, completing jigsaw puzzles, creating original artwork, and navigating mazes.

Language includes listening, comprehension, speech, reading, and writing. It lays the foundation for future learning, relationships, conflict resolution, and self-confidence.

Ages: 4-6

Materials

Tip: Sturdy paper will make for a card that stands up easily.

Directions

Cut out the inside and outside card templates. Glue them back to back.
Step 2

Step 3
Cut out the figures and the greeting banner along their dashed outlines.
Step 4
Fold accordion-style inward along the solid lines and outward along the dashed lines.
Step 5
Glue the figures and the greeting banner at the designated spots on the inside template.

Tip: If the cutting is too intricate for your little one, you can do it ahead.
