| Palm Sunday and Psalm 118 set such a vivid scene, the shouts of ‘blessed is he’ float on the air turning from a song of praise into an event of joy with our saviour arriving on the donkey’s back. This craft captures. A gentle movement has the crowd waving their arms and branches. |  |
 |
To make this craft you will need the 1 page template printout, scissors, and glue.
US letter paper templates |
 |
Cut out the shapes – you don’t have to be exact but the people in the background do need to be separated. |
 |
Take the largest shape and fold it in half along the dotted line with the print on the inside. |
 |
Fold the ends of the strips backwards so we form an ‘M’ shaped fold. |
 |
Open out and fold the people face down. |
 |
Fold the Jesus support tab too. This goes print side out. |
 |
Glue Jesus and the donkey on the support tab. |
 |
Glue the leaves to the hands of the people in the crowd. |
|
Hold either end of your creation in each hand and gently move your hands closer and further apart to see the donkey ‘walk’ and the crowd move |
