This puffy paint pie craft is super easy and creative way for the kids to explore their artistic side while having a great time!

Craft Supplies:

Directions:

  1. First things first – use a BROWN paint crayon to color in the “pie crust” in the craft. Simply have children paint the outer rim of their large paper plate with the crayon.
  2. Next up – help children fold their paper plate in half {with the pie crust inside.} Straight up the center to make it a half circle.
  3. Now unfold and squirt some puffy paint on one side of the paper plate. This is going to become the “pie filling.“
  4. Be sure to keep the paint inside the paper plate and not place too much down. A good squiggle or two of paint is perfect.
  5. Once the paint is down, go ahead and re-fold/squish your paper plate together again.
  6. Be sure to rub your hand all over the folded piece, so the paint will cover your the inside nicely.
  7. When ready, carefully unfold the paper plate to reveal a pie filling design inside.
  8. Next up – grab your light brown cardstock paper and the scissors.
  9. Cut out several thin strips for the remaining pie crust.
  10. Go ahead and glue those onto the painted paper plate.
  11. To finish the paint splat pie tutorial, glue on a few cotton balls in the center for the “whipped cream” on the pie.
  12. Set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly.
