While I originally made this adorable little guy for New Year’s, it also makes a really fun party favor, or even a make and take, for a birthday party! If you would like to do the project as a make and take, I would suggest having the plates painted first so the kids don’t have to do that step and get messy.

Paper Plate Party Animal

This fun paper plate monster face uses a party blower for a tongue! Great for New Year’s or for birthday parties—or heck, celebrate any day!

Supplies

1 paper plate
Yellow and light blue paint
2 large pink pom-poms or any color
Scrap of black felt
Party blower

Instructions

Paint the backside of the paper plate light blue and allow to dry. Paint the top side of the plate yellow and allow to dry.
Cut circles from black felt and glue to the pink pom-poms. Fold the plate in half but do not crease. Glue pom-pom eyes to the top of the blue side of the paper plate. Cut a small hole in the center of the plate and insert the party blower. Parents can secure the blower with a small amount of hot glue, however tape can also be used

I originally created this project for Kix Cereal
