![This project will turn an ordinary paper plate into a confronting Frankenstein face, complete with a stitched up jaw and neck bolts. There is a lot of coloring in with this Halloween craft idea, which you can substitute for painting if you want a different kind of activity. There is also some threading of yarn that will be a bit more challenging for a younger toddler, but will help develop those motor skills if given some time. Full written instructions are included in this post, along with pictures for each step and a video demonstration. [toc] Prepare Your Paper Plate Craft Materials If you want to stick with coloring in rather than painting then your craft materials will be very simple, and mostly mess free. Again, feel free to interchange your crayons for paint. This will require a bit more time when you factor in time to dry and cleaning up the paint brushes and table covering.
