We love incorporating fun, creative and simple crafts into our parties to keep little hands moving! For our recent Mickey Mouse First Birthday Party we of course wanted to make a themed activity for our little Mouseketeers. This simple and adorable Mickey Mouse Paper Plate Party Craft idea is easy for kids to whip up on their own using basic supplies and some creative thinking!
Have the kids start by laying out a Red Paper Dinner Plate.
Next, have the kids cut a Yellow Paper Dinner Plate in half using a safe pair of Scissors. Next, adhere the Yellow Paper Dinner Plate to the Red Paper Dinner Plate using a Glue Stick.
Peel the back off of the Self Adhesive Craft Buttons and secure them to the Yellow Paper Dinner Plate to create Mickey's buttons.
Flip a Mickey Mouse Party Cup upside down and use a Mickey Mouse Pencil to trace two circles for Mickey's ears onto Black Card Stock. Using a pair of safe Scissors, have each child cut out the traced circles.
Adhere the Black Card Stock ears to the top of the Red Paper Dinner Plate using a Glue Stick.
Trim about 8 inches of length of Red and White Striped Satin Ribbon. Using a Glue Stick, adhere the Red and White Striped Satin Ribbon to the top of the Red Paper Dinner Plate and allow to dry in place.
Secure the Mickey Mouse Glove Cut Outs to the sides of the plates using a Glue Stick.
Using a Sharpie Marker, have each child add their name to their craft.
Enjoy your adorable and fun Mickey Mouse Paper Plate Craft at your Mickey Mouse First Birthday Party!
