Put Me in The Zoo Paper Plate Craft
After you gather your supplies, I usually go ahead and cut the pipe cleaner for the children, so it’s ready to use. If you are working with one or two children, this can easily be done with them, but if you are using this for a classroom craft, I like to have the pipe cleaner cut.
Start by cutting about a 2-inch piece off the pipe cleaner. Take the remaining pipe cleaner and bend into a smile. Glue on the 2 eyes and black pom (nose), then glue on the 2-inch piece right under the nose. Next glue on the mouth/smile, making sure it’s centered between the 2-inch piece.
For the tissue paper cut 1-inch squares out of the yellow tissue paper. Take the pencil and place the eraser end in the middle of a square. Twist the paper up around the pencil and dip it in a tiny bit of glue. Place it on the paper plate and slowly lift out the pencil. Repeat step until the paper plate is filled.
You can also have your children scrunch up the little piece of tissue paper with their hands and dab some glue on it and press it on to the plate.
Glue colored pom poms on all over the face. and let it dry.
Have fun making this cute Dr. Seuss craft.
