To many kids, sharks are some of the coolest creatures in the ocean! At the top of many of those lists is the deadly great white shark.

We made this shark headband craft because we have two boys at home who love sharks!

This easy craft is perfect for summertime, especially for when shark week rolls around.

Download the free printable template and make this craft or print out the black and white version for your kids to color in!

Directions

Download the shark headband template, print and get all the pieces ready.

Inside the template, there are 3 options:

Full-color version - just print, cut and wear

Black and white version - print, have the kids color in and wear

Craft version - make your own from colored card stock and wear

The rest of the directions below are for making the craft version of this shark headband.

Begin assembling the mouth by gluing the red tongue to the bottom of the mouth. Take as many teeth as you want and glue them all around the outside of the mouth. Use the scissors to trim off any excess teeth.

Take the completed mouth and glue it to the middle-ish area of the light blue underbelly. Use a black or gray marker to draw on two nose holes near the top of this section of paper.

Place this piece in the middle of the headband base and glue in place.

Create the shark's eyes by cutting out two small ovals from the black card stock. Use a standard hole punch or scissors to cut out a smaller circle from white paper. Glue the white paper onto the top of the black oval.

This will give your shark a happier look. If you don't want that, leave off the white circle.

If you don't want to cut out small pieces, just use a black marker to draw the eyes directly onto the blue paper.

Attach as many headband extenders as you need to fit your child's head. We attached them to the base with tape, but you can also use a stapler.
