Directions:

  • First have children cover their paper plates completely with red and/or green paint. Simply squirt some paint in the center of the paper plate and have them use the paint brush.
  • While they are working on that, cut out the “caramel” from the brown cardstock.
  • To finish off the Candy Apple kid craft, staple on the cardstock piece to the paper plate, as well as the popsicle stick to the back.
  • Then add other embellishments you see fit {maybe some glitter for sprinkles!} before setting aside the decorated paper plate to let it all dry completely.
  • Then display proudly for all to see!
  • You can also change up this craft by skipping the paint and using green/red tissue paper instead!
