Lily Pad Craft Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate {one per lily pad craft}
* Green Tissue Paper
* Four Medium Sized Circular Paper Doilies
* Kid Friendly Craft Scissors
* School Glue
* Hand-Held Stapler
* Decorative Flowers
optional – other embellishments like glitter, stickers, feathers etc

Directions:

* First cut a small triangular piece out of your paper plate to give the look of a lily pad. Discard the cut piece.
* Cut your green tissue paper into small squares.
* Put a good amount of glue all over the leftover paper plate piece. Have children place the tissue paper on top of the glue, until the plate is completely covered.
* Next fold each paper doily in half, then in half again to make a triangle. Go ahead and glue the inside of those down so they won’t come apart.
* To finish off the Paper Plate Lily Pad craft, glue your folded paper doilies into the center of the finished paper plate and make a simple flower design. Finish off by gluing a decorative flower in the center and add other embellishments you see fit. Then play or display proudly!
