Paper Plate Snowflake Craft

Get creative with a simple craft to bring the winter cheer! Make beautiful snowflakes with paper plates and let your creativity soar.

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Paper Plate
  • Blue Craft Paint
  • Foam Paint Brush
  • Paper Straws {5-10 per craft}
  • Craft Scissors
  • School Glue
  • Large Rhinestones
  • Loose Craft Glitter

Directions:

  • First have children paint their paper plate however they like. A nice shade of dark blue is nice but any color will do. Just remember to make it a shade darker than your paper straws.
  • Sprinkle some loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint, before setting it aside to let it dry.
  • Now grab your paper straws and scissors. Trim them down for your snowflake design.
  • Start laying/planning out the design you will be making for your snowflake.
  • Next is finally putting the snowflake design together! Glue down a single rhinestone to the center of your paper plate. This will be your guide and center of the snowflake.
  • Now one by one – start gluing your paper straws in place on the paper plate.
  • Once done, set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly for ALL to see!

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!
