Need: paper
plates, craft sticks, masking tape, yellow paint, paint brushes, lion
faces, glue, cake pan, scissors
Adult: Put two
pieces of masking tape on the edge of the cake pan, for each child;
prepare glue and paint. Give each child a paper plate, and paint the
outside crimped edges with yellow paint, down to the center, but not in
the center. Allow to dry one hour. Using paint brushes and thinned glue,
children glue their lion faces into the center circle of the plate. Using
scissors, make cuts from the edge of the plate towards the center, not
cutting the face, every 1-2 inches, all the way around. Slightly fold up
every other piece, to give dimension. ADULT: Cut
out eyes. Place a craft stick on the BACK of the plate, leaving enough for
child to hold as handle; have child tape the stick on.
