How to Make the Paper Plate Handprint Pumpkin

As a mom, my heart melts in a puddle when I see my little ones’ hand prints…yes, even if they’re on my freshly cleaned windows…not that my windows are freshly clean very often, but you know what I mean.

Kids grow so quickly, and I love capturing as much of the little stage as I possibly can, and this Paper Plate Handprint Pumpkin craft gave me the chance to do just that!

– Paper plate – Orange tissue paper – Construction paper – Pencil

MATERIALS NEEDED:

Flip the paper plate over with the bottom-side facing up toward your little one.

STEP 1

Have them cut and paste small squares of tissue paper all over the bottom of the paper plate.

STEP 2

Assist them in tracing their hand with a pencil and cutting it out using their scissors.

STEP 3

Help them glue the stem and the leaf (their hand print) on the top of the pumpkin, and ta-da!
