Material Required


  1. Paper plate
  2. Crepe paper
  3. Glue stick
  4. Child-safe scissors
  5. Foam piece for the beak (yellow or any bright color)
  6. Scotch tape
  7. Crepe ribbons for the tail
  8. A tree twig (optional)

Directions to be followed

  1. Cut the paper plate in half. We used an 8-inch normal paper plate. If you are using a bigger paper plate, remember to cut out bigger crepe paper scraps.
  2. Tear up the crepe paper (use as many different colored papers as possible) into tiny bits using a child-safe scissor or your hand and paste them on the paper plate using a glue stick. Start from one end layering paper as you move forward. TIP – Apply glue on the paper plate instead of on the paper scraps. Will help with kids who hate sticky fingers.

  3. Using a scissor, trim along all the edges.

  4. Ask kids to measure crepe ribbons as long as the bird. Teaches them about non-standard length and measurement. Now, staple together the bunch of crepe ribbons (again use a variety for a more colorful effect); this will form the tail feathers.. 
  5. For the beak, cut the foam paper into a triangle. Stick it in place. Now, stick the googly eyes. Finally, secure the tail to the other end of the body. Fasten the bird to a tree twig with the help of a scotch tape. Your beautiful parakeet is ready to chirp and tweet!Craft Ideas: Paper Plate Bird | Hands on Art & Craft - Class 1
