It is easy to make a paper plate crown with kids. The cost is right also! We made this particular crown for another contribution to my AWANA Cubbies Series. This Paper Plate Crown relates to the AWANA story about King Josiah, but it would definitely be appropriate for any Bible study about kings. Of course, making a paper plate crown is fun whether you are studying the Bible or not.

The scripture for this lesson is "The Word of the Lord is right." - Psalm 33:4 (printable included). The story in AWANA is about King Josiah. When Josiah became king, God's scriptures had been lost and forgotten. The word was discovered again when King Josiah decided to build up the destroyed temple. King Josiah read the book, knew it was the Word of God and told the people they needed to listen to the Word and learn the truth. This craft about a crown is a reminder of what King Josiah did as he re-established the importance of knowing God's Word.

Buttons (optional)

Hot Glue (optional)

I wanted to provide the quick, visual tutorial for those that just get it. Although I know some appreciate this quick glance, I know most others appreciate a full tutorial that gives the step-by-step process.

You want to use just a flimsy paper plate. Each child will need one.

Fold the paper plate in half.

There is absolutely no need to draw a dotted line on your paper plate. I did it on mine as a helpful visual for you to see where you cut. Essentially, you cut it like a pizza.

You will need to open up the paper plate to make the final two cuts.

Here is what it looks like after all the cuts have been made.

We prepped all of these paper plates for our Cubbies leaders. It's the least we could do. They are teaching our kids every week.

We also cut out the verse printable that will be glued on the edge.

The craft is now all prepped and ready for the kids. They can color the paper plate however they want to create the look of their crown.

The kids can glue the verse on the edge of the plate.

To make the crown part stand up, the kids can just fold them up into place.

We added buttons to the final look, but this is completely optional.

Here's a video tutorial to get you on the right track if there is any confusion:

Your kids are going to love having their own crowns. It's such an easy, inexpensive craft. How can you go wrong?

Construction paper (12" x 18")

Paper in various colors

Curling ribbons or crepe paper

White glue

Pompom

Transparent tape

Scissors

1Make a paper cone.

Make a cone from construction paper with a radius of about 8 to 9 inches following our a basic cone hat tutorial.

You can also print out this birthday hat template on A4 or Letter size cardstock. The resulting hat will probably be a bit small so you will need to attach a chin strap. Do this by punching a pair of opposite holes near the base of the hat. Attach the ends of an elastic string around the holes.

2Decorate the hat.

Decorate your hat with bright-colored circles or stars. You can either paint them on or cut paper shapes and glue them all around the hat.

3Create hair.

Create about 15 to 20 pieces of colorful "hair" using either of these materials:

Curly ribbons - cut curling ribbons into 10 to 12-inch long pieces. Curl the ribbons following these curly ribbons tutorial.

Crepe paper - cut 1-inch wide strips of crepe paper in various colors. Crumple them up a bit so that they look slightly curly.

4Tape the hair to the hat.

Tape the ribbons or the crepe paper strips inside the hat, along half of the hat's bottom edge.

5Glue a hat topper.

Glue a large pompom at the tip of the cone hat. If you don't have one, crumple up a long strip of crepe paper into a ball and glue it at the tip of the cone.

6Wear the hat.

Enjoy wearing your funny hat! For a complete clown look, use face paint to color your nose red.

If the hat is slightly small for your head, create a chin strap. Simply punch a pair of opposite holes near the bottom edge of the hat. Attach the ends of an elastic string.
