Paper Plate Unicorn Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate {one per unicorn craft}
* Hole Punch
* Colorful Tye Dye Yarn
* Craft Scissors
* Cardstock {white, gold & pink}
* School Glue
* Hand-Held Office Stapler
* Black Marker
* Large Wiggle Eyes {two per unicorn craft}

Directions:

* First have children hole punch FIVE holes {a small section of space between each} on the rim of their paper plate. Set aside.
* 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!
