This elephant is a simple cut and paste paper craft that is fun for young children to make. It makes a great project for preschool and kindergarten kids and works well for an animals, letter L, mammals or jungle theme. (He's holding a hibiscus flower from the jungle where he lives.)
There is a small (single page) and larger (two templates) version to choose from.
