In spirit of Easter and the upcoming spring weather, today I’m sharing a fun tutorial for a Clothespin Paper Plate Carrot {perfect for the little bunnies in your life!}

And I have to say, like I always do, this carrot themed kid craft is really SIMPLE and almost costs nothing {what parents love to hear!}

My little boy had fun creating this piece and I’m sure older kids will too. So what are you waiting for? Grab those simple craft supplies and your child & get to “hoppin” on making this adorable carrot piece! Happy crafting my friends!

Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Orange Tissue Paper
* Green Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Scissors
* 5 Large Wooden Clothespins

Directions:

* First cut your paper plate into a triangular/carrot shape. Discard unwanted pieces.
* Grab your orange tissue paper and cut it into small squares {let the kids practice their cutting skills} Set aside.
* Next take your paper plate piece 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. Set aside.
* Now grab your clothespins and have children paint them completely green. Set aside to let them dry completely.
* To finish off the Clothespin Paper Plate Carrot Kid Craft – have children “pinch” and attach their clothespins to the larger side of the cut paper plate piece, to represent the top of a carrot. Then display as is or add other embellishments you see fit!!!
