Paper Plate Craft: Create Meals with Magazines

It has been very wet here again so we decided to crack open the craft cupboard again and this time so something with paper plates. Each of the boys decorated their paper plates with water colour tablet paints from the pound shop.






Then they cut out images from the Tesco Magazine (any food magazine is perfect for this and I am not one for throwing much away)





Then they stuck the food to their plates







If you have older children you could use this activity to start doing different food groups or you could used tissue paper to make the food.

If you have younger children, it pays to have some food cut up for them as they get tired of using the scissors.
This was a fun and simple activity perfect for a rainy afternoon.
