Paper Plate Pets
Have the boys decorate the backs of paper plates as the faces of their favorite pet. They can use
crayons and markers, or get a bit fancier with cotton balls, yarn, construction paper, pipe
cleaners, etc. for hair, whiskers, ears, etc.. You can put a handle on the bottom of the plate using
a craft stick or strip of cardboard to make it into a puppet.
