Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Get some construction paper, glitter, googley eyes, fabric, markers, popopms, and any other craft supplies that you have leftover lying around the house!. Get a paper plate!.
Cut the construction paper and or fabric, whatever you are choosing to use onto the center of the paper plate so that it covers the inner circular part of the plate!. If you're using a pig you should use pink construction paper, a bear brown, a duck yellow etc!. Or you can make the colors weird like a purple frog, which will entertain the kids!.
2!. Using liquid glue or a glue stick, glue the paper onto the plate!.
3!. If you are doing a bear or another animal with ears on the tops of it's head, cut out two small circles and carefully glue them to the top of the plate!. You can also do the inner part of the ear a contrasting color, like if you were doing a panda and the back of the ear was black the inner part woud be white!.
4!. Use googley eyes, string, glitter, markers, and anything else to color in the animals face the way that you wish, wish a nose mouth, etc!.
5!. Using a hole puncher, punch small holes in the sides of the plate!. Then, get a long rubber band and cut it so it is no longer circular!. String the rubber band through the holes in the sides of the paper plates!. When they meet, tie them around the actor or actresses head in a knot or a bow, anything as long as it's comfortable and not too tight around the headand you're in for a full out
