Thanks for this post. I pinned it so I can refer to it often in the summer for craft ideas to do with my son.
So glad to hear it. Thanks much for letting me know.
Wow, what an epic collection of paper plate ideas! It will take me a while to go through all of these (not like I had anything better to do, right? lol!)
