We’ve had lots of ducks in our pond this Spring and it made me think of the Duck Feet Painting craft. This is a craft idea that was submitted to FreeKidCrafts.com some time ago, but it’s a lot of fun!
Duck Feet Painting
“A spring art activity that I have used often with toddlers and preschoolers that they really enjoy is “Duck Feet Painting”. We fill a tray with some yellow paint and use spatulas to make the webbed footprints on the paper. Playing or singing spring/duck songs during the activity reinforces the “duck” theme. Ex. Six Little Ducks, 5 Little Ducks, etc.”

When we tried this craft, we used fly swatters instead of spatulas. The kids loved it!

I have done the duck feet craft for about 12 years now with the spatulas, but I also like to have them do chick feet too with plastic forks. So we do the duck feet with little chicks running about too. It’s a nice spring, bird craft. The kids love them!
Hi Chris,
Do you have a pattern for a tractor, specifically a John Deere, made from perler beads? My mother saw one at a craft show, but cannot find a pattern.
Thanks,
Karen Smith
Hi Karen,
Sorry… I don’t have any perler bead patterns that are that complicated, but I’ll keep my eyes open for one!
