Gather Materials You’ll need paper plates, colored paper, scissors, glue, markers, googly eyes, and any craft supplies like feathers or pipe cleaners.
Cut the Plate Shape Depending on the animal, you might cut the paper plate into different shapes (e.g., cut ears or a shell outline).
Create Facial Features Cut out eyes, noses, and mouths from colored paper or use googly eyes for a fun effect.
Add Texture and Details Use markers, crayons, or craft supplies to add fur, feathers, scales, or spots to the plate.
Assemble Your Animal Glue the facial features and decorative pieces onto the plate carefully.
Add Extra Elements Use pipe cleaners for whiskers, yarn for hair, or feathers for wings to make your animal more realistic.
Let it Dry Allow the glue to dry fully before handling to keep your animal intact.
Display Your Creation Hang your paper plate animal on a wall or fridge or use it as a fun classroom decoration!
