The best part is you don’t need to cut out the handle on the mug, just use the template to make a semi-circle. This makes this craft super easy to prepare and simple to make.

Watch how easy it is to make the supplies and assemble the craft on my Youtube video:

Did you know, hot chocolate has been around for about 3,000 years? Read more at Wikipedia.com.

Step 2: Staple and Cut Out the Craft Shapes

Staple the Hot Chocolate PDF template to sheets of colored paper to cut out multiple shapes at a time.

Once you have the hot chocolate templates printed out, staple them to construction paper and cut out multiple shapes at a time.

Note: If you want to make this craft with a group of kids, you can staple the template to up to 10 sheets of copy paper, 5 sheets of cardstock or 6-10 sheets of construction paper.

So, did you know, you can staple together 10 pieces of copy paper and cut out 10 shapes at a time?! That’s my SECRET to fast & easy crafting.

Stapling the paper is very important because it makes sure it doesn’t move as you cut. The more staples the better. Cardstock is the thickest so you may only be able to cut 5 sheets at a time.

Step 3: How to Assemble

The kids will have so much fun making their hot chocolate mugs!

I recommend having a mug craft that is already put together so the children can see what the final version will look like.

  1. start with the hot chocolate mug shape
  2. glue on the brown circle for the hot chocolate
  3. glue on the white semi-circle to complete the handle
  4. glue on paper marshmallows, use cotton balls, or better yet, real miniature marshmallows
  5. don’t forget to write your name on the back

And you’re finished!

This is such a fun and simple winter craft for kids. This paper mug of hot cocoa is easy enough for preschool, elementary, Scouts or just a fun craft at home idea.
