Trace your child’s hand onto one of the sheets of paper. Make sure their fingers are spread out wide.
Stack the papers all together before cutting. You can also fold the papers in half to double the number of leaves. Cutting through all the papers, cut out the handprint.
Draw veins onto each of the resulting leaves with the black marker.
Cut out the center circle of the paper plate and discard.
Glue the leaves around the outer ring of the plate. Let dry.
Glue (or tape) the string to the back of the plate. Let dry.
