Directions for Paper Plate Barn Craft

Step 1

Step 1 - Preschool Barn craft - how to cut out your paper plate to reflect a barn shape
Let’s make a barn craft!

We started by placing one paper plate on top of the other and cut out the outline of a barn so that both paper plates are shaped the same.

Step 2

With one of the paper plate barn shapes, cut barn doors and loft doors leaving the paper plate material to be able to swing and open like a door on hinges.

Step 3

Step 3 - Preschool Barn craft -painting a red barn fall craft
Let’s paint the barn a barn color!

We used  a balled up paper towel to paint the paper plate with the doors cut into it. This can be used as a sponge painting technique or you can use a paint brush. The paper towel gave then paint an old and wrinkled feel.

Step 4

Step 4 - Preschool Barn craft -fall accessories added to the craft barn activity
Decorate your barn with farm accessories

When the painted plate  had dried, we glued the painted plate to the front of the unpainted plate.  Then add we added the symbols of fall to the red plate and behind the doors so that when you open the doors there is a surprise inside!
