Adorable Paper Plate Toddler Pouch

Does your toddler like to hold little knick knacks or collect them in her pockets? If so, your child will love wearing this

adorable paper plate toddler pouch!

It's a wonderful accessory to store all her precious and interesting discoveries. I find it very cute to see my little hoarder carrying it around with her as she traipses all about the house and the park.

How to Make a Paper Plate Toddler Pouch

• Gather these simple art and craft materials: 2 paper plates, scissors, stapler, ribbon and decorative stickers
• Cut 1 paper plate into half
• Hold the halved paper plate against the other full paper plate, with the perimeters flat against each other to form a pouch
• Staple the paper plates together
• I stapled the ribbon to the paper plates (because I don't own a hole-puncher 😂) but you could punch two holes on the top of the full paper plate to form the handle if you have one
• Decorate the pouch with stickers, markers or crayons. You can engage your little helper in this art and craft activity
• Hang the pouch over your child's shoulder or around her neck

And now your little one has a personal belonging to call her own!

Caution: Parental supervision is needed when your child is wearing the pouch because there is a risk of strangulation with a long ribbon handle.
