We are sort of a family of nerds. My husband and I are both science fiction fans & enjoy the supernatural. Mai must be following in our footsteps because she has become more & more interested in monsters & aliens lately. Tonight we made paper plate & bowl UFOs.
What you will need:
2 Paper plates
1 Paper bowl
Craft pom poms
Pipe cleaners
Acrylic paint & glue
Directions:
Cut out the center of one of the paper plates.
Place it over the paper bowl & make sure that it fits over it enough. Trim the center more if needed.
Cut a small fold-down flap on the bowl for a door. Glue the bowl to the top of the whole paper plate & fit & glue the cut plate over the bowl.
Paint your UFO. We painted the base in silver,
Mai added her own designs in different colored paints & added her own special touches.
Together we glued the pom poms around the outside of our saucer.
We folded & twisted 3 pipe cleaners in half & bent both ends to use as legs for our space ship.
We glued the legs on & let the project dry. Mai loved the opening to her space ship. She used it to store more pom poms for later.
Thank you as always for stopping by. Please follow us on Facebook as well.

Totally family of sci-fi buffs here. My girls absolutely love Miles From Tomorrowland right now. So got to try this with them 😉
