Paper Plate Dr. Seuss Cat In The Hat - Kid Craft Idea

Dr. Seuss Paper Plate Cat In The Hat

Hi my crafty readers! Today I’m so excited to be sharing another kid friendly craft tutorial that goes along perfectly with one of my favorite childhood books, Cat In A Hat. This time the crafty idea is nearly exactly titled after the book – Paper Plate Cat In The Hat!

I personally think the Cat In The Hat children’s book is one of the most recognizable Dr. Seuss books around. Just looking at the book cover brings back some good memories. So I just HAD to do a kid craft in honor of that mischievous cat in the striped hat!

Not only is this a great book to read with children, but the paper plate cat craft I’m sharing today is tons of fun so it really pulls everything together. And as usual – it’s simple, inexpensive and fun for all ages. You can’t go wrong with a large paper plate and tissue paper craft!

So what are you waiting for? Let your child’s imagination go wild and craft this up with your favorite little crafter today. Then grab the book to read in celebration of what you have done and really make a fun afternoon out of it! Happy crafting and reading the beloved Dr. Seuss book, my friends!
