Paper Plate Moon Craft For Kids
This paper plate moon craft is fun for any child, especially if you’re studying space!
I see the moon, and the moon sees me….
Who knows that nursery rhyme?
If you don’t know it, it goes like this:
I see the moon and the moon sees me. God bless the moon and God bless me.
Every time the girls and I get out and it’s dark outside with the moon visible, we say that rhyme.
Making this fun moon craft reminded me of that rhyme!
I saw this fun craft over at Easy Peasy and Fun.
Make happy jars with your kids!
The materials you will need for this craft are:
- paper plates
- blue and yellow paint
- a black marker
- string
- hole punch
Draw your moon onto the paper plate. On the extra cut out, draw a star or two. Cut the shapes out and paint them!
After the moon and stars have dried draw an eye and mouth onto the moon.
Hole punch the top of the moon and the stars. Tie a string from the moon to the stars.
There you go! A fun moon craft to make with your kiddos.
This would be fun to do during a space unit study, nursery rhyme fun or learning about creation!
Did you make this craft? I want to see it!
