This idea is brought to you by my amazing mother! We had some pretty awesome Halloween decorations growing up:) This was always one of my favorites. It’s super easy and educational- can’t beat that!
- 16 paper plates (the cheap ribbed kind work best)
- Brads
- Scissors
- Hole puncher
- Sharpie
Cut out each body part, punch holes at the joints, and connect with brads

Fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this
Is there a actual template you can print off to trace?
We made these a couple years ago and I lost my template. Thank you google for leading me here. My kids loved it and I already bought the plates for making them again. Now I have an idea of what to actually cut out!
Girl, you are creative! My hubs used to teach human anatomy. I am going to go buy paper plates and let HIM lead the crafts this weekend. Especially my BOYS will think this is way cool. Thanks for linking up!
