First have your child paint their large paper plate completely yellow. They can use paint brushes or my son's favorite - their hands.

While your child is painting, use scissors to cut the orange tissue paper into a handful of small squares.

Once the paper plate is done and covered, put a good amount of glue all around the rim of the plate.

Next have your child stick the tissue paper to the plate, along the glue line you just placed down. This will be the lion's mane.

Now glue on the large wiggle eyes and draw a mouth in the center of the plate to give the lion life!

At this point in time you can also cut out some half circle ears from the orange cardstock and staple those on, as well.

When done creating, set aside it aside, to let it all dry completely.

Finally, display your newly created paper plate lion head piece proudly for ALL to see!
