Yellow Buy Craft Idea Using A Paper Plate
Happy Thursday friends! I’m so excited to be sharing yet another kid friendly craft that goes along great with one of our favorite children’s books.
This Paper Plate Bug Kid Craft goes along perfectly with the hilarious beginner book Because A Little Bug Went Ka-Choo! by Dr. Seuss (writing under the name Rosetta Stone)
Just like the story in the book, we had a chain of events of reading it together and finishing it off with a kid friendly craft in honor. This paper plate yellow bug craft is not only adorable and super simple for young children – but it’s also REALLY inexpensive when it comes to the supplies.
So what are you waiting for? Let’s grab those craft supplies and get to work with your child ASAP. Don’t forget to read the book in honor of your crafty adventure!
Happy crafting my friends! Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share, if you decide to recreate our paper plate and tissue paper bug craft with your child today! You can always find us on our Facebook page or tag us on Instagram to see! #gluedtomycrafts
