Step 3
Colour the shirt, pants, shoes and glasses. You can also stick daddy’s photo on the face to make it more fun.
Now, cut it out using scissors. Adults can help kids to cut out the portions under the arms and legs using a paper cutting knife. Make sure you leave a small part of the cardstock beneath the shoes. We need this part to stick the pic on to the paper plate.
Step 4
Fold the paper plate in half and write your message, “Dad! You rock”. Don’t you think this message fits this rocking craft perfectly 😉
Step 5
Fold the portion of cardstock beneath the shoes backwards and apply some glue there.
Step 6
Now, stick it on the paper plate as shown below.
Step 7
Cut out a small circle and make a mini badge by cutting some patterns around it. Stick two small strips of paper behind it to complete the look.
Write “best dad” and stick the badge on dad’s shirt.
