I first came across this Paper Plate Noah’s Ark craft when I was preparing the lesson for the Sunbeam class searching through the internet for an extra art and craft activities that would make the children interested in learning.
I intend to have the Sunbeam children doing this craft as we are learning about the Lord’s creations which including animals. I did some modifications as I used some more economical materials which I can find.
- White colour Paper Plate
- Brown colour Paper Plate
- Colour pens
- Blue colour construction paper
- Scissors
- Glues
- Staples
- Draw or print out the animals in pairs ( I printed out from this website: http://www.firstpalette.com, there are so many types of animals to choose from)
To Make:
- Colour and cut out the animal print-outs or drawings. I printed out these animals sets on A4 paper size card stocks. After cutting out, just put aside.
- Take 1 white colour paper plate use as the background of the sky, and draw a rainbow using the colour pens.
- Take1 brown colour paper plate and cut it into half and use one half to form the front ark. Cut out 3 circles to form the port holes of the ark. Using brown and black colour pens to draw out the planks.
- Cut out waves shapes using blue colour construction paper and glue it on the brown colour ark.
- Start to arrange the animals, either glue it behind the brown colour ark.
- When these had been done, glue the brown colour ark onto the rainbow paper plate to form a pocket.
- You can decorate the rainbow paper plate by glue the regular size craft sticks to form a wooden house shape and glue the Prophet Noah at the side too.
After I have done a sample, both Issac and Annabelle were so excited and happy to see this craft.
I feel happy as well because I do not know I can create such a nice and attractive craft. I am sure the Sunbeam children would love it very much ^^
