Shadow Tracing

I love a craft that involves very little... this one's one of them!


All you need is blank paper, animal figurines (or dinosaurs), a marker and sun!


  1. Put your paper and figurines by a window where there is direct sunlight that creates a shadow.

  2. Trace this shadow. This is great for your little one to practice their fine motor skills.

  3. And voila! Look at all of the fun animal shapes!
