The Lion King is a must have kids movie for your collection. Not only is it great for little ones, adults can even enjoy the movie. My hubby says it’s his favorite movie so he purchased it for our son’s 4th birthday. Because we love movie playdates, we invited his friend over to watch it. Before the movie, the boys made footprint lions as a fun Lion King craft. They are simple to make!
How to make the Footprint Lion King Craft:
You’ll Need:
- paint
- paintbrush
- construction paper
- black marker
- Make a yellow footprint.
- Paint a yellow tail.
- Make either brown or orange colored thumbprints (or fingerprints) around the heel. The heel is the head and the thumbprints are the lion’s mane.
- Make a matching thumbprint at the end of the tail.
- After it dries, add eyes, nose, whiskers, and a mouth.
