- Have your child color the “Snack Backpack” label and the straps (also write your child’s name)
- Fold 1 of the paper plates in half, colored sides together
- Place the 2 paper plates front sides/non-colored sides together
- Use a stapler to attach the bottom half of the paper plates together
- Use the stapler to attach the hook strap of the backpack to the top in the back
- Use the stapler to attach the shoulder straps to the top and sides on the back of the back pack
- Use the tape to help your child attach the label to the front of the back pack
- Fill with snacks!
