Alphabet Castanets
STEP 1. Gather supplies
STEP 2. Fold paper plate in half. Do NOT make a hard crease!

STEP 4. With the plate folded in half, punch 2 holes on either side close to the bottom. These will be used to tie ribbon or elastic loops so it stays on their hands.
STEP 5. begin decorating your plate! we decided to paint.
STEP 6. Pick out buttons and hot glue them to the edges. you want the same amount on both sides.
