Curly hair paper craft for kids

Step 1: 

Grab  piece of paper or even construction paper and draw eyes with a smiley face. You can even choose to draw a sad face if that is what your child is feeling. 

Step 2: 

Spread some glue to where you would like the hair to be. I have used various colors of unique paper strips to make fun curly colourful hair. 

Tips: You can substitute paper with yarn hair or even some flowers and grass. Choose any hair styles that you like.
