CRAFT SUPPLIES:

Before you begin crafting, gather the following materials. Most of these items can be found at your local craft store or within your home craft bin.

  • Large Paper Plate
  • Craft Scissors
  • Tan Craft Paint
  • Foam Paint Brush
  • Markers {red, green and yellow}
  • White Puffy Paint

DIRECTIONS:

Get ready to turn ordinary paper plates into a masterpiece!

  • Start by cutting two slits on the sides of a paper plate to create a more defined “hamburger” shape. The center will represent the meat and condiments, while the larger sections will form the bun.
  • Trim a small section off the bottom of the plate to give it an authentic hamburger look.
  • Grab your markers – use brown, yellow, red, green, and any other colors you need.
  • In the center section of the plate, have the kids draw and color lines to represent the hamburger meat, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and other toppings.
  • Now it’s time to work on the buns! Paint the remaining sections of the plate with brown paint to resemble the top and bottom of the hamburger bun.
  • For a fun detail, add white “sesame seed” dots on the top bun. Puffy paint works great for this step!
  • Let the craft dry completely before proudly displaying your finished paper plate cheeseburger.
  • Don’t forget to snap a few photos of your masterpiece and share them with us on Facebook! We’d love to see your creations!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
