To go along with our Earth Day Recycling Activity we made our very own Earth out of a paper plate. I scaled down the continents from our Geography Map Activities to make a printable template for this craft. Little Tiger (age 4, preschooler) chose to draw her own continents to decorate her paper plate with so it’s up to you and your kiddo how you want your Earth to look :). I must say, I love her hand drawn continents.
