This adorable Christmas-themed craft is based on the book Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Sleigh by Mo Willems. Your students will love creating a runaway sleigh with a very panicked Pigeon inside!   Using the provided templates, students will cut and assemble Pigeon and Santa’s sleigh. The templates can either be printed on coloured or white card and cardstock. If printing on white, provide time for your students to either paint or colour in the pieces before cutting and assembling. Once Pigeon is assembled, we recommend gluing a pop stick behind his hat, head and neck for durability. Students can glue light blue feathers to Pigeon’s wings and a small bell to his Christmas hat. The sleighs can be decorated with colourful items, such as sparkly pipe cleaners, pom poms, sequins and beads threaded on string. The completed crafts can be displayed alongside the included banner!   This engaging resource includes:

1. Detailed instructions with a completed example.
2. Pigeon and sleigh templates.
3. A colourful display banner.

  Young students may benefit from having the templates enlarged to A3.   Looking for more resources related to this book? Check out our Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Sleigh Worksheets!   It's time for Pigeon to drive the sleigh!
