Letter D:  Dragon Paper Plate Directions

Before giving this craft to the kids to make, you’ll want to cut out the dragon’s body and wings in advance.

  1. Draw a circle for the body, and add an upside down, rounded triangle on top for the head in the center of the paper plate.
  2. Cut out the shape from the middle of the paper plate.
  3. Draw wings on the remaining pieces of paper plate and cut them out. The project is now ready for kids.
  4. Let the kids color the dragon body and wings green (or whatever other color they want) using crayons, markers, or paint.
  5. Pierce the bottom of the orange and yellow balloons with the brad, and stick it through the dragon’s mouth to make it look like the dragon is blowing fire.
  6. Glue the wings to the back of the dragon.
  7. Glue two googly eyes to the dragon’s face to finish the craft.

If you like, add a Popsicle stick to the bottom of the dragon to transform it into a puppet. You can also cover the dragon with letter D’s for even more hands-on educational fun.
