Instructions
- Begin by painting or coloring your plate brown. 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 for the kid to pick from.
- Cut out and glue two medium sized circles from the light brown construction paper to the back of the paper plate.
- Cut out two two small circles and an oval from the light brown construction paper. Glue the small circles down first and then the larger oval to make the monkey face.
- Glue on googley eyes and draw on a nose and smiley face. You can also make eyes from other paper or draw them on. Let kids make different monkey faces for this craft!
