V Is for Vulture Craft

V Is for Vulture title graphic

Sure, vultures get a bum rap–but without these guys, our world would be a lot stinkier! Our latest ABC Craft gives an overdue thumbs-up to these dirty-job doers. Thank you, Vultures!

Here’s What You’ll Need

  • 2 sheets of printer paper
  • Card stock (we used black, white, light pink, dark pink, and sky blue)
  • V Is for Vulture Craft templates
  • 2 “googly” eyes
  • Glue stick and pencil

Instructions for Assembling Your Letter V Craft

  1. Print the V Is for Vulture Craft templates.
  2. Cut out the templates and trace the letter V and the vulture body parts onto card stock.
  3. Cut out the letter V and the vulture body parts.
  4. Attach the letter V to a full sheet of card stock (we used sky blue, but you can use any color you like).
  5. Glue the right and left wings to the letter V.
  6. Affix the vulture’s head to the base of the letter V.
  7. Glue the vulture’s feet, beak, and neck feathers to the vulture’s head.
  8. Affix two googly eyes to the vulture’s head.

Robyn,
I think putting these pages into a book is the perfect thing to do with them. Then, when you finish, your child will have a book that he or she made! If he or she is anything like my children, the book will get a lot of looking through and use over the next year or two!

Lauren,
We do have plans for a lower case ABC craft series! However, it won’t be until after the capital series is finished and as of yet we don’t have a set date for them.

However, we do have some ABC activities that do include lower case letters. Check out:

Feed the Puppy

Tactile Letter Cards

ABC Caterpillar

and ABC Playdough Mats

When we do release our lowercase craft series we will be sure to announce it through our newsletter, on our blog, and on our Facebook page!

I really love this idea. One of our children has celiac disease. The ideas I’ve seen using cereal or pasta to fill in a letter a is cute but in our house would be very expensive. I think they would have a lot of fun making something like this!

Diane,
I’m glad we could give you some food-free letter craft ideas. Enjoy!
