My Family Craft – All About Me Project

Learners choose between outward-opening front doors and a single door that lifts upward. Both formats place a personalized family label on the house and conceal a drawing area behind the flap. Cutting, folding, colouring, and gluing directions show how to assemble the craft, including shaded adhesive areas and dotted cut lines. The finished project combines an all-about-me response with a simple interactive paper structure suitable for display or discussion.

About this resource

This is a 6 page PDF.

Check out the preview to see all pages included.

It is a cute and fun little craft that can be incorporated into:

*A Social Studies focused on familie

*All About Me and My Family Unit

*Beginning of the Year Family Projects

It is easy to prep and complete this project. Great for kinder to second grade. There are two printing options. One where the doors open outward to the right and left as seen in preview and the second version (easier) that makes the door flap open upward without cutting the doors in half, it is just one piece that opens upward.

Can be completed in 1 or 2 lessons.
