ROARING BY with another kid friendly craft! This time we are incorporating YARN into our typical paper plate crafts!

Inspired by some orange colored yarn I recently re-found in my craft stash, today I present to YOU our Paper Plate Yarn Lion kid craft idea!

It’s creative, simply one-of-a-kind AND super easy to make – making it the PERFECT craft to create with your child today!!! So what are you waiting for?! Let’s “roar” together and make time for some craft time! Happy crafting my friends!!!

Paper Plate Yarn Lion Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Hole Punch
* Yellow Yarn
* Scissors
* Marker
* Wiggle Eyes
* School Glue

Directions:

* First have children paint their paper plate completely yellow. Once done, set aside to let it dry completely.
* Once dry, go ahead and hole punch holes {leaving a mall section of space between each} all around 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. Go ahead and thread/tie three stands together in each hole punched hole. This will be the lion’s mane. At this point in time you can also trim down the hair if you like {or add more yarn if desired!}
* To finish off the Paper Plate Yarn Lion, have children draw/glue on eyes and nose to give the lion life. At this point in time you can also add other embellishments they see fit. Then display proudly!!!
