This letter A handprint angel craft is great for preschoolers! We made ours as a Christmas angel to go along with a Winter and Christmas alphabet post over on Crafty Morning. If not making around Christmas time, kids may enjoy decorating their angel in their favorite colors.

Print the letter A template and paint it or leave it white. We chose green and gold glitter paints to match the Christmas theme.
Make a circle shape for the head. I traced around a circular item in the size I wanted. Cut around it, then add the angel's face.
Cut around the letter A and glue the head to the top of it.
Cut around the handprints and glue them on to the sides of the letter as wings.
Cut pieces of curling ribbon (we used gold). Slightly curl the end using a scissors. Tape them on as hair.
