How to Make the Dinosaur Paper Plate Craft

Step 1: Gather your supplies
Gather your supplies.

Step 2: Cut the paper plate
Cut a paper plate in half, and cut the other half into small triangles.

Step 3: Paint and add the spikes
Use the paint sticks to add lots color to your dinosaur. You can paint the triangle pieces too.
Paint sticks dry very quickly, so you’ll be able to glue the triangles around the outer edge as spikes or plates on the back of your dinosaur.
This is where their creativity can soar. Create any type of face you’d like. You can add squares to the bottom as feet.
Use a marker to draw a smiling mouth on the dinosaur’s face. Get creative and make the smile as big and cheerful as you’d like! And there you have your dinosaur! Once all the decorations are in place, your dinosaur paper plate craft is complete. Admire your adorable creation and display it proudly.
All done!
Your craft is ready to show off!
