From the template, cut all the body parts out neatly. Younger kids may not be able to do it on their own. You can assist them, if necessary.

Step 3: Make the paper plate base for the giraffe’s body

After cutting the body parts out, take a paper plate. And cut into two halves.

Take one half and cut the inner flat portion out. You can discard the rim.

Paint the paper plate with yellow colour, or the colour closest to the giraffe’s neck portion given in the template. Here we used watercolour. You can use other colouring tools like tempera paint too.

Now, let’s make the spots on the giraffe. Paste the spots on the paper plate in a random manner, making a pattern you like.

Step 4: Put together all body parts of the paper plate giraffe
