What to do:
- Paint a white paper plane orange/yellow for the lion's face
- Cut the brown paper in a circle bigger than the paper plate.
- Stick the brown circle behind the paper plate.
- Have the child cut strips, on the brown paper around the paper plate to create the mane. The child should stop cutting as it reaches the top of the paper plate.
