How to Make a Paper Plate Hamburger
Step 1. Paint or color your paper plate. I used a tan marker and a brown paint stick to add poppyseeds to the bun.
Step 2. Cut your paper plate. I cut two pieces and removed the middle section to make a slightly smaller bun.
Step 3. Using construction paper or cardstock, make a hamburger patty shape. Use a glue stick to attach the patty and other toppings to the bun. Let kids pick and add their favorite toppings!
