Instructions
First have children cut up the light tan tissue paper into small squares.
Now take the large paper plate and put a good amount of glue all over it.
Have children place the tissue paper on top of the glue, until the paper plate is completely covered.
When done, set aside the paper plate to allow it dry a bit.
Now grab ALL the sheets of cardstock, pencil and scissors.
Trace your child's hands on the light tan cardstock.
Trim out the traced handprint pieces.
Use the stapler to staple them together to look like a beard.
Next, out the dark brown cardstock, cut out some ears and a heart shaped nose for the groundhog.
To finish off the paper plate groundhog kid craft – simply glue/staple the cardstock and wiggle eyes pieces in place.
Then display proudly for all to see!!!
