Paper Plate Umbrella

They say April showers bring May flowers, right? Well I sure hope so because we have definitely had our share of showers the past two days. So, to honor our spring showers, we made our very own paper plate umbrellas!

First, color a paper plate any way that you like and then cut it in half.

     

After it’s cut in half, cut a slit in each piece and fit the two halves together.

   

Next you need to add a handle made from construction paper.

   

Hang a few raindrops from your umbrella and add a string to hang it up.
