Supplies Needed To Make This Paper Frisbee\

How to Make a Paper Plate Frisbee

Step 1

First you will need a stack of paper plates.  

Craft Notes:

We painted ours as color makes a rainy day just that much brighter! If you do decorate, be sure to color the bottom of your plate as that’s what you will see when the frisbee is put together. You will also need pointy scissors.  

Step 2

Cut out the middle of your frisbee.

Poke a hole in the center of your plate with the scissors and then cut an “X” up to the plates “circle”.  

Step 3

Step 4

Tape the edges of your frisbee.

Tape your two circles together so that the bottoms face out.  You can also use a stapler but my kiddos couldn’t manage that on their own.  So tape it was!

Now you have a frisbee!  And if you are like us, you won’t make just one, you’ll have 6 or 20!
