Are you still looking for some ideas for you and your child to do in honor of Valentine’s Day? Well – today I’m adding another Valentine themed kid craft to the archives and it goes perfectly with the book “Love Monster” by Rachel Bright.

Ironically this kid friendly activity is titled the same as the book and uses my favorite craft medium for kid crafts – paper plates!

So what are you waiting for? Stop being a “monster” {ok, that may be a little harsh} but seriously –  grab your supplies so you can make this Paper Plate Love Monster {Kid Craft} with your child today. {psst – don’t forget to grab the book to read after your do the craft!}

Happy crafting, my friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate Love Monster Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate {one per craft}
* Red Tissue Paper
* School Glue
* Kid Friendly Scissors
* Hand-Held Stapler
* Red/White/Black Colored Cardstock

Directions:

* First cut your red tissue paper into small squares.
* Put a good amount of glue all over your paper plate.
* Have your child place the tissue paper on top of the glue, until the paper plate is completely covered.
* While your child is working on that, cut out the other “love” monster embellishments from the cardstock. Think eyes, ears, mouth etc.
* To finish the Love Monster themed kid craft – glue/staple on the facial features to the paper plate and display proudly!
