How to complete this tutorial step by step?
Materials:
To carry out this activity, you will need:

Step 1:
Using a brush, paint a slice of wood with yellow acrylic paint.
Let the paint dry for 15 minutes.

Place the wooden slice base on a patterned card, then trace the outline using a pencil. Next, cut out the sheet following the outline.
Step 3:
Glue the rounded shape onto the base of the wooden slice along with two googly eyes Ø 2.5 cm.
Step 4:
Cut out the chick's beak from a sheet of orange paper, then glue it under the googly eyes with white glue.
