Here is a simple Christmas craft that you can make at home and hang them on the tree.
3 easy steps to make a Paper Plate Elf.
Materials Needed:
1. Cardstock paper
2. Black marker
3. Glue
4. Scissors
5. Paper plate
6. Tissue paper
Have the kids cover a paper plate with glue (using a wide paintbrush) and stick on cut up pieces of red tissue paper. Cut out an elf hat shape and have them cover that as well.
Make some belt pieces and glue it over the elves bellies. Make a circle for the elves head and have them paint it a tan color.
Cut out some shoes, mittens, and eyes for the elves. Tape each piece together really well on the back and the front. The bigger elf was really heavy so it kept bending backwards but it looked great hanging up in the window!
