(Looking over the craft now, I think that series inspired the design of these dragons!) Alright, let's make ourselves a paper plate dragon! (Psst- Don't have paper plates? You can still make a cute paper dragon. Find the directions and FREE printable here.) First I folded the plate in half and traced the body. (You can make your own design, or just use my dragon template !) Then, I cut out the head and tail pieces from the excess material. We also folded down our wings. Then, I slid the head and tail pieces between our body pieces and stapled everything together. Then, we went wild and used our favorite paints and Sharpie Markers to decorate our dragons! Here's the one that I made.... and here's the rainbow one that my son painted! More Dragon Crafts.... And if you're looking for more dragon crafts, check out the links below!
