I loved crafting with tissue paper for our paper plate jellyfish and was looking for a new opportunity to use it again. This Captain America paper plate shield is an easy craft for kids who are into superheroes. You can use either paint or tissue paper. The latter option gives the little ones the chance to practice their scissors cutting skills.

Supplies:
- free star template
- paper plate
- tissue paper (red, blue and white)
- scissors
- glue
Step 1: Start by cutting the tissue paper into small pieces. Considering that there are 2 red rings, you will need more red than blue and white tissue paper.
Step 2: Apply glue on the paper plate and stick the tissue paper ring by ring. Start with the outer red ring, then move on to the white one, red again and finish with the blue one in the middle.
Step 3: Print the star template, cut out one of the stars and glue it on top of the blue ring. The template has several stars and this makes it perfect for a play date or classroom craft.
