Paper Plate Apple Pie Slice - Kid Craft Idea For Thanksgiving

Apple Pie Slice Paper Plate Craft Idea For Kids

It’s as simple as pie – promise! Using just a simple paper plate, tan paint, some craft yarn, paper and a little glue – you too can make it with your child in no time.

Best part of this paper plate apple pie slice craft is that it’s calorie free and you “make” it over & over again – on the fly & cheap without breaking out the mixer or turning on a stove!

And fun fact – my personal favorite embellishment in this apple pie art project idea is the yarn I used because when I first picked it up at Walmart, I instantly thought of a “crust” for what would later become today’s tutorial. Isn’t it crazy how these ideas come to me???

So friends… enough chit chat from me! Let’s bake up some crafty fun with our paper plate apple pie slice tutorial below!

Happy crafting my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s finished apple pie slice from a paper plate, on our Facebook page for us to admire! #gluedtomycrafts

Get the kids busy this weekend with a fun and creative paper plate apple pie slice craft! It’s a perfect way to get their creative juices flowing and have some quality time together.

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Paper Plate
  • Craft Scissors
  • Tan Craft Paint
  • Foam Paint Brush
  • Loose Orange Craft Glitter
  • School Glue
  • Thick Tan Craft Yarn
  • Brown Cardstock Paper
  • White Cotton Balls

Directions:

  • First cut your paper plate to resemble a pie slice. Think of a pizza slice shape.
  • Discard the excess paper plate pieces.
  • Now paint the paper plate piece slice completely tan with the craft paint.
  • When done, and while the paint is still wet, go ahead and sprinkle some orange “cinnamon” on top.
  • Set it aside.
  • Next cut several short strands of tan yarn. This will be the “crust” of the piece.
  • Put lines of glue on the painted paper plate pie piece, where you want your “crust” to lay.
  • Lay the yarn strands on top of the glue.
  • Add more glue if need be. Set aside.
  • Grab the brown cardstock and scissors.
  • Cut out several small squares for the outer rim pie crust.
  • Now put a good layer of glue on the rim of the paper plate.
  • Place the brown squares on top of the glue, along the rim, until completely covered.
  • To finish off the Paper Plate Apple Pie Slice, glue a few white cotton balls in the center of the decorated paper plate {because every pie needs whipped cream!}
  • Then let it dry completely in an undisturbed area, before displaying proudly!

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!
