Paper & Card

Step 1Cut out a circle of paper that fits onto the centre of a paper plate and then divide it evenly into four sections using a pencil and ruler.
Step 2Using oil pastels create four different images that represent different times of the day. We have chosen morning, midday, evening and night.
Step 3Glue this circle to the centre of a paper plate.
Step 4Divide a second paper plate into four sections and then carefully cut out one of the sections.
Cut the triangle piece out slightly smaller than the drawn line on your scenes to make sure only one picture can be seen at a time and also so there is enough space in the centre of the plate to push the paper fastener through.
Step 6Place this plate on top of the other and push a paper fastener through the centre of both plates.
Step 7Decorate the top paper plate using oil pastels or paint. Allow to dry. Write ‘What time of the day is it?’ around the edge. The top plate will now be able to be turned to reveal different times of the day!
