Directions:
- First cut your ivory colored tissue paper into small squares {let the kids practice their fine motor skills!}
- Take your paper plate and put a good amount of glue all over it.
- Have children place the tissue paper on top of the glue, until the paper plate is completely covered.
- While they are working on that, grab all your paper pieces.
- One by one, take your piece of paper and cut out body and facial features from it. Think pants, legs, shoes, mouth, eyes, bowtie and even the zig-zag cracks! Use a marker {or crayons} to add details where needed.
- To finish off the Humpty Dumpty craft – staple the body pieces to the paper plate and glue on his face/cracks to the front of the paper plate.
- Then display proudly your adorable Humpty Dumpty egg for all to see!
- BTW – your finished pieces can be easily turned into puppets by hot gluing a popsicle stick to the back!
