DLTK's Bible Crafts for Kids
Palm Leaf Fold and Cut Craft

This is a fun Palm Sunday craft that works a lot like cutting out paper snowflakes.  The fronds end up being large enough that the children can carry them around waving them for a Palm Sunday parade.

Materials:

  • printer
  • paper
      
  • scissors
  • paper clips
  • green construction paper
      
  • scotch tape
  • OPTIONAL:  Green pipe cleaner

Directions:

  • Print out the template of choice.  (the templates have the directions on them)
      
  • Cut this template along the dotted line. 
      
  • Fold a piece of green construction paper in half and paper clip the template so the dotted line is along the fold. 
      
  • Cut through the template and both layers of construction paper along the black lines.
      
  • Discard the template (unless you want to make more leaves).
      
  • Unfold the construction paper to see your finished palm leaf.
      
  • Tape a green pipe cleaner as a stem
    or 
  • Roll a second piece of green construction paper into as tight a tube as possible and tape it so it will stay.  Tape that to the center as a stem

 

  • Close the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
      
  • Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
