It’s no secret that kids love animals. And who can blame them?! They’re so fascinating and so cute!
Kids love animals for all sorts of different reasons. Some look cuddly while others look ferocious. Some animals graze on leaves while others use their sharp teeth to catch their prey! Animals are so different and they’re so neat to learn about.
My kids love animals! If it were up to them, we would have two pet tigers, one alligator, five koalas, and a million fish. Good thing it’s not up to them. I have my hands full as it is!
These animal headbands are a great way for your littles to pretend they’re their favorite animal. There are 26 animals to choose from. One for every letter of the alphabet!
They’re super easy to make! Just download, print, color, and cut! Our template makes it so much easier. This animal headband craft has half the mess but double the fun!
Think of the fun you and your child could have with these Animal Headbands. The adventures you could go on. The possibilities are endless!
The best part is that they get to color these animal headbands any way they’d like! Want a purple zebra with green stripes? How about a panda that’s green and orange? You got it!
Coloring is such a great activity to do with your kids to help with their developmental skills. Some of the benefits include:
- Increases fine motor skills
- Improves concentration and relaxation techniques
- Fosters creativity
- Encourages self-expression
- Aids in color recognition
Coloring isn’t just for kids. Even adults love coloring because of how relaxing it is. It’s a great way to get us, adults, to sit still and just relax our minds.
