Like I mentioned above, this is a great craft to recreate for the upcoming Easter holiday {especially for the little bunnies in the home!} If children can use scissors and hold a bottle of glue, they CAN recreate this carrot themed art project today!

Plus the little painted handprint embellishments on the top of the carrot, really tie it all together – don’t you think? With that being said, don’t forget that this is a great piece to set aside as a keepsake, for years to come! Just slide it into a scrapbook for safe keeping afterwards.

Well enough chit chat from me, I’ll you get to it! All the details you need to know can be found below in the full paper plate carrot tutorial! I even included a few alternative craft ideas below to get those crafty juices really flowing today!

  • Working quickly, press the painted covered hand on the paper.
  • Lift up their hand and clean off excess paint with a baby wipe & a quick trip to the sink.

Paper Plate Carrot Craft

You don’t have to do a handprint either for this carrot themed craft. You can easily substitute the handprint with painted footprints instead or have your child draw and/or cut something out by hand {really let their imagination go wild!}

And if you aren’t feeling the handprints or footprints for this carrot craft idea, why not change it up and do CLOTHESPINS instead for the greenery?! Just paint the wood pins green and PINCH them onto your paper plate instead!

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.
