Paper Plate Unicorn - Kid Craft Paper Plate Unicorn - Kid Craft

If you’re looking for a fun and easy craft idea for kids, look no further than this paper plate unicorn!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Paper Plate {one per unicorn craft}
  • Single Handle Hole Punch
  • Colorful Tye Dye Yarn
  • Basic Craft Scissors
  • Cardstock Paper {I used white, gold & pink}
  • School Glue
  • Hand-Held Office Stapler
  • Black Sharpie Marker
  • Large Googly Eyes {two per unicorn craft}

Directions:

  • First things first – have children hole punch FIVE holes {a small section of space between each} on the rim of their paper plate.
  • Once done, set aside the plate.
  • Now grab your yarn and cut THREE 5″ inch strands of yarn per hole punch on the paper plate {15 strands total for each unicorn}
  • Go ahead and thread/tie three stands together in each hole punched hole. This will be the unicorns hair.
  • At this point in time you can also trim down the hair if you like {or add more yarn if desired!}
  • Next grab your cardstock. Cut out a unicorn horn, two ears and mouth out of the cardstock.
  • To finish off the Paper Plate Unicorn, have children staple/glue their cardstock pieces and wiggle eyes to the paper plate.
  • Now add other embellishments you see fit to give your unicorn a custom look.
  • Then display proudly for all to see!
  • Don’t forget to also share pictures with us on your various social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
