Nature wind chime craft to do with your child!

Here’s how you make this cute paper plate turtle craft!

  • First paint your turtle shell. This will be the paper plate, backside up.
  • Allow the paint to dry. (this didn’t take to long for us.)

  • Flip the turtle over and attach the head, tail and feet, made from construction paper.

  • Add a mouth and googly eyes.
