Hot Dog Paper Plate Craft
One of my favorite children’s book series as of late, has been the Pigeon Presents Series by Mo Williems.
Whenever I read these comical books to my Lil Man, I like to act out the stories and add funny voices to the characters. It’s just so much fun to read and they even have great lessons behind them {like sharing, responsibilities, following directions etc}
Since I love this children’s book series so much, it comes to no surprise that I’m sharing a paper plate hot dog kid craft that goes along perfectly with the book The Pigeon Finds A Hotdog. This book tells the story where the Pigeon learns to share even his most prized food. It’s such a great valuable lesson for kids!
To recreate this paper hot dog kid craft, all you need is a simple paper plate, tissue paper and colored cardstock. That’s it! With just those three simple supplies, you too can pull this easy hot dog kid craft idea together in no time!
Then you can grab the book, maybe a real hot dog or two and celebrate as you read & craft together this afternoon!
Just follow the step-by-step tutorial below and let the fun begin with this paper plate and tissue paper hot dog idea.
