Craft Supplies:
- Large Paper Plate
- Scissors
- Skin Tone Craft Paint
- Paint Brush
- Santa Hat Printable – on our landing page
- Red Cardstock Paper
- Stapler
- White Cotton Balls
- Large Wiggle Eyes
- School Glue
Directions:
- First things first – print off the FREE Santa hat printable listed above in the supply list. I highly suggest printing it out on red cardstock paper but you can of course use white as an alternative and have kids color in the hat design instead.
- Next cut the printed shape from the paper. If using red cardstock paper, before you discard the excess, be sure to cut out Santa’s nose real quick.
- Now glue some cotton balls on the rim of the cutout, as well as one cotton ball on the tip.
- When done gluing, set aside the decorated hat piece till later.
- Up next – the paper plate moon. Grab the plate, along with your scissors.
- Cut the paper plate to look like a half moon shape.
- Discard the excess paper plate piece.
- Paint your paper plate shape with your craft paint.
- To finish off the paper plate witch moon craft, simply staple the hat shape from earlier, to the painted paper plate.
- Follow by up by gluing on his cotton ball “beard” on the paper plate.
- The last step is to add on the facial features – like the wiggle eyes, a small oval nose etc.
- And that’s it! You can either add some more elements {like some stickers or glitter glue} or go straight to displaying it proudly for ALL to see!
