Let's Create!

  • Paint the paper plate using yellow or brown paint (or mix them if you’d like).

  • Once the plate is dry fold it in half-this is your taco “shell”

 

  • Cut the green paper into thin strips and fold it “accordion style”- this is your “lettuce.”

  • Cut the red paper into small squares-these are your “tomatoes.”

 

  • Cut out any other forms for your taco fillings.

 

  • Lastly either glue everything into your taco so it does not fall out or leave it in loosely so you can continue changing it.
