You can also use popsicle sticks to create arms and legs for your monster. To start, cut out the shape of your monster's body from the paper plate using scissors or a craft knife.

Next, paint your monster's body with washable paint. You can choose any color you like, or let the kids get creative and paint their own unique design. Once the paint is dry, glue on some googly eyes to give your monster some personality.

For added detail, you can use pom poms to create arms and legs for your monster. Simply glue the pom poms onto the body of the monster, using a small dot of glue to attach them.

To finish off your monster, use colored acrylic paint to add some extra details. You can paint on teeth, horns, or any other features you like.

Finally, let the kids decorate their monsters with markers or crayons. They can add all sorts of fun details, such as spikes, scales, or even a tongue sticking out of the mouth.
