DLTK's Bible Crafts for Kids
Stuffed Heart Craft

Even the youngest crafters can make this project.  It's great for the children in the preschool room in a Sunday School to make and hang from the ceiling.

Includes quote from John 3:16 " For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Materials:

  • paper
  • scissors
  • stapler
      
  • cotton balls or shredded newspaper
      
  • IF HANGING:  short piece of string, wool or ribbon
      
  • OPTIONAL:  finger paint  (or tempra paint and brush)
      

Directions:

  • print two copies of the template (or just draw your hearts freehand but make them the same size).  Do not cut out yet.
      
  • OPTIONAL:  
    • Let the children paint the templates with finger paints or a brush and tempra paint
    • Allow to dry.
        
  • Cut out the hearts (adults will need to help with this)
      
  • Staple all the way around the edge of the hearts, leaving an opening at the top
      
  • Stuff hearts with shredded paper (kids age 3+ love to help with this step).
      
  • Finish stapling the heart closed
      
  • staple a short piece of string to the top to hang from the ceiling

 

Templates:

  • 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).
