Directions:

  • First you will want to trim your paper plate down a bit. You want the face to be more triangular but still round. {I hope the above picture explains it better}
  • Cut your gray tissue paper into small squares.
  • Slather a good amount of glue all over the paper plate.
  • Have your child place the tissue paper on the glue, until the paper plate is completely covered for the raccoon’s fur.
