How to Make an Easy Paper Plate Gingerbread Man Christmas Ornament Craft for Kids

Supplies

safety scissors
small paper plates
pencil
glue
markers, colored pencils, crayons or paint
white yarn for decoration and for ornament hanger

Step 1.

First, color the small plate with brown.

Step 2.

Add eyes and a mouth with a black marker. Then add red for the cheeks.

Step 3.

Next, cut a strip of red construction paper about 1.5 inches wide. Draw a bow on the back of the paper.

Cut the bow out. Glue to the top or bottom of the circle. Make sure to leave room for a hole to hang the ornament. Let dry.

Step 4.

Next, cut a piece of white yarn and glue it towards the top in a wave line. I used a glue stick and first put a stripe of glue and then pressed the yarn into it.
