Muffin Craft Idea For Story Time Using A Paper Plate
Hi friends! Continuing on with the theme of children’s books and kid crafts that go along with them – today I’m sharing a kid friendly muffin craft tutorial that goes along perfectly with one of our favorite books “If You Give A Moose A Muffin” by Laura Numeroff.
This Paper Plate Muffin tutorial is probably one of the simplest crafts I’ve ever shared on the blog. It’s fun for all ages and also really inexpensive when it comes to the supplies. So what are you waiting for? Find the easy step-by-step tutorial below, as well as links to other kid crafts that are similar in nature!
Also – don’t forget to read the coordinating moose themed book in honor of the craft and perhaps even bake up some muffins to celebrate!
Happy crafting my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your finished paper plate and tissue paper muffin craft creations with us on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see them! I can’t wait to see what you create! #gluedtomycrafts
