Introduction: Paper Goose-Rabbit

About: During the COVID-19 crisis, all of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship's religious services moved into an online-only format. I generally organize Sunday school activities for the children of the Fellowship …

Today's story is one of transformation, and so is today's craft! Is this a goose...or a rabbit? Both? Depends on how you look at it!

Supplies

-paper

-popsicle stick

-scissors

-pencil

-markers

-glue

Step 1: Sketch Out Your Goose-rabbit Shape.

I decided to use pink paper for the rabbit and blue for the goose, but you can choose any colors you like! I sketched out the shape with a pencil on one of the pieces of paper. When I was happy with it, I put the second piece of paper under the first.

Step 2: Cut Out the Shapes.

You want them to match, so putting both pieces of paper together and cutting them both at the same time is the way to go!

Step 3: Decorate.

Add details with your markers to make one version of the shape look like a goose and the other like a rabbit. I added an eye and a wiggly nose to the rabbit and an eye and a beak for the goose.

Step 4: Glue the Shapes to the Popsicle Stick.

I put some glue on the back of one shape, set the popsicle stick in the middle, and then added a little more glue on top of the popsicle stick. Then, I pressed the other shape on top of the first. Let it dry!

Step 5: Admire Your Goose-Rabbit!

Is it a Goose? A Rabbit? Both? Flip it back and forth and see!
