Sheep Paper Plate Craft

During Spring we start thinking about farm animals! March and April are lambing season when sheep reproduce! As a result lamb crafts are very popular around this time. 

My children love farm animals and we have previously made lots of pig crafts so this year we thought we would make some sheep! 

Sheep are so cute with their fluffy white wool, not only that they are also very easy to make with very few craft materials. 

You can turn a paper plate into a sheep very quickly as my kids and I found out!
