This swinging paper plate craft is a great addition to our Santa paper plate craft, especially if you’re planning a fun Christmas craft session.

The idea of these rocking paper plate crafts is that they can also be used as toys for children to play with after they are finished. But we have another special role for this rocking paper plate – make it nice and shiny and replace the star on top of the tree with a cute little angel. Isn’t that cool?

Want to make your Christmas tree look even more angelic? Make these thrifted cotton angel ornaments (so simple and fun, but you could definitely make them more colorful).

Are you ready to create a batch of adorable little angels?
