Animal Craft Ideas For Kids
In the beginning of Glued To My Crafts we were known for our paper plate kid craft tutorials. Several of which were centered around my son’s favorite animals back then.
So… as I was digging through our blog archives this summer {giving some much needed TLC to my lovely website} I was inspired to create {and share} this animal themed art & crafts roundup post that you see today!
All of these paper plate animal craft ideas are super easy to recreate {especially for those younger crafters in your home} and they in-cooperate inexpensive materials that won’t break the piggy bank. It all starts with a simple paper plate and you won’t believe what I came up with!
So without ado, keep scrolling to check out the links and pictures listed below. From there, you are going to pick your favorites and click on them to be taken to the full & original tutorials. I’ve even included some children’s book recommendations in the posts, so you can really tie the theme together with ease!
Remember – crafting with kids has so many benefits {like coordination, fine motor skills and bonding moments.} This animal craft collection post is the perfect start to making today extra crafty!
These crafts can be of course followed to a “T” but we really hope you take our ideas as a starting point and use them as inspiration! My personal favorites are our paper plate dinosaur and bear tutorials, so be sure to give those a try today!
