Remember this activity isn't limited to a lion -- you and your kids can create your own special design. Do you have a friend who just loves koalas? How about Aunt Jane who collects elephants?
And don't limit yourself to just animals -- there are lots of objects that would make great pictures!
What You'll Need:
- Paper
- Pencil
- Wood block
- Small nails
- Hammer
Step 1: Draw a lion on a piece of paper.

Step 2: Imprint
the design into your block of wood by placing the picture on the wood.
Then retrace the lines with a pencil, pressing extra hard.
Step 3: Now that you have the outline of the lion in the wood, hammer nails into the block of wood along the lines. Before you know it, you'll have 3-dimensional art you can keep or give proudly as a gift.
