As a daycare Mommie, I am always looking for simple yet sentimental crafts for my toddlers to make! The paper plate Easter craft is wonderful! I love doing crafts that teach the true meaning of Christian holidays & also creates a wonderful keepsake for my families! We are making this nice Easter craft today, tweeking it a little as well! I let the kiddos experience finger-painting in place of the tissue squares! We will also color a sheet of paper & then I will cut out crosses for them! I know they will be beautiful! Thanks for the idea!
