Paper Plate Dr Seuss Green Eggs - Kid Craft

Paper Plate Green Eggs Craft

This month is coming to a fast close and pretty soon Dr. Seuss’ birthday {March 2nd} will be here!

Every year in celebration of this children’s book author, everyone gets together to celebrate Read Across America Day. It’s a HUGE nationwide reading event and it is a good excuse to wipe the dust off your books and get lost in the stories!

In celebration of what is to come, I’m kicking off this year’s Dr Seuss themed crafts on the blog with today’s Paper Plate Green Eggs craft tutorial. Not only is it super simple for preschoolers to make in a snap BUT it also goes along perfectly with the beloved classic “Green Eggs and Ham” by Dr Seuss.

“Do you like green eggs and ham?” asks Sam-I-am in this Beginner Book by Dr. Seuss. In a house or with a mouse? In a boat or with a goat? On a train or in a tree? Sam keeps asking persistently. With unmistakable characters and signature rhymes, Dr. Seuss’s beloved favorite has cemented its place as a children’s classic. In this most famous of cumulative tales, the list of places to enjoy green eggs and ham, and friends to enjoy them with, gets longer and longer. Follow Sam-I-am as he insists that this unusual treat is indeed a delectable snack to be savored everywhere and in every way.

Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning.

So what are you waiting for? Be sure to “FRY” up this awesome craft and read the book with your child today! Happy crafting, my friends!

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!
