- 1 pair of scissors
Ingredients
- 1 paper plate, cut in half
- 1 piece cardstock or construction paper red
- 2 googley eyes
- markers, crayons as needed
- 1 bottle school glue or gluestick
Instructions
- Begin by painting or coloring your plate red. If you're wanting this to be a faster craft you can use markers, crayons or colored pencils. You could also pre-paint plates too and have them ready to go.
- After you paint the plate, cut it in half so you can get two crabs per plate. Cut out claws and legs from red construction paper or cardstock.
- Turn the plate around, and glue on the legs and claws.
- Turn the plate back around and glue on the googley eyes.
- If you don't have these handy or available you can use white paper to make cut out eyeballs and color the pupils black.
