Directions:
- First cut the center of your paper plate out, leaving a ring for the wreath. Discard the center of the paper plate.
- Next you {or your child} should tear/cut up the green crepe paper into squares.
- Now put a good layer of glue all around the the paper plate ring. Have your child place the crepe paper squares on it, until it’s completely covered.* Once that is done, have them glue some red pom poms all over the wreath. Set aside to let it dry completely.
- While that is drying, trace your child’s hands on the red cardstock. Trim those trace-outs out and staple them together to look like a bow.
