Paper Plate Wolf Craft Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate {one per wolf craft}
* Brown Tissue Paper
* Black/Brown/White Cardstock
* School Glue
* Craft Scissors
* Hand-Held Office Stapler

Directions:

* First cut your brown tissue paper into small squares {let the kids practice their cutting 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, cut out the wolf’s facial features from the cardstock. Think eyes, nose, ears etc.
* To finish off the Paper Big Bad Wolf kid craft – staple/glue the cardstock pieces in their designated spots on the paper plate.
* Then display proudly! {or add other embellishments to really make it your own!}
