Tried and True Paper Plate Panda Craft

This fun and easy paper plate craft is perfect for kids of all ages! It’s easy to make and is a great way to learn about pandas.

Craft Supplies:

  • Large, White Paper Plate – 1 per craft
  • White Tissue Paper
  • Black Cardstock Paper
  • School Glue or Glue Stick
  • Kid Friendly Scissors
  • Office Stapler

Directions:

  • First have your children cut the white tissue paper into small squares.
  • Now take your paper plate and put a good amount of glue in the center of the plate.
  • Have children place the tissue paper on top of the glue, until the center is completely covered. This is the start of the panda’s face.
  • While they are working on that, cut out the facial features of the panda from the black cardstock {think eyes, ears, nose, mouth, etc.}
  • To finish off the panda paper plate craft – have children glue on the cardstock pieces to the paper plate. I would start with the panda ears and then work from there.
  • Go ahead and also add other embellishments you see fit, before you display it proudly for all to see.
  • Don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomyrafts

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
