I’m bringing life to an oldie of mine! Today I present to you our super easy to recreate Paper Plate Carrot kid craft idea! Perfect for your spring and Easter themed craft events!

Like with most kids, this is the only veggie they will want to see this time of year! #gluedtomycrafts

Like I mentioned above, this is a great craft to recreate for the upcoming Easter holiday {especially for the little bunnies in the home!}

Plus the little footprint embellishments on top, really tie it all together – don’t you think? With that being said, don’t forget that this is a great piece to set aside as a keepsake, for years to come!

Happy crafting, my friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate Carrot Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Orange Construction Paper or Orange Tissue Paper
* School Glue
* Scissors
* Brown Cardstock
* Green Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Baby Wipes

Directions:

* First things first – take your paper and cut it into a carrot/triangle shape – or some might say, a pizza shape.
* Next grab the orange construction paper {or tissue paper} and help your child cut/tear it into 2×2 inch squares. Set aside.
* Now slather a good layer of white school glue on the newly trimmed paper plate and ask your child to place their orange squares on it, until it’s completely covered. Set aside to let it dry completely.
* Next make the stem of the carrot. Using green paint, make some footprints on the brown cardstock. We did three footprints for my son’s current age. Once those are dry – cut them out.
* To finish off your paper plate carrot, staple your footprints to the paper plate.
* Then display your carrot piece proudly for all to see!

Extra TIP- you don’t have to do footprints either for this carrot themed craft. You can easily substitute the footprints with painted handprints instead or have your child draw and/or cut something out by hand {really let their imagination go wild!}
