How to make a paper duck toy

You will need:
  • Paper plate
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Stapler
  • A pencil
  • Yellow and orange construction paper
  • markers
  • paint (yellow)
  • Googly eyes (optional)
Here is what you need to do:
Fold a paper plate in half. Paint it yellow and let it dry.
To make the duck tail, in an orange construction paper, trace your hands and cut it. Staple the hands near the fold on one end - these will be the tail feathers. To make your duck's head... Using yellow construction paper, cut out a circle. Then cut an elongated oval to make it as the duck bill.
Glue the bill into the circle.
Staple the head to the paper plate (near the fold line and in the opposite of the tail).Using orange construction paper or, cut out the duck's feet - they should be connected by a short strip of paper. To draw each foot, start with an oval, then draw a zigzag on one end. Fold the paper where the feet meet the strip of paper. Staple each foot to the bottom of one side of the paper plate, right inside the fold line of the foot.

You now have a paper duck that will stand up.
