** What you will need: ** *Click on the word doc. below to get the cat template. *Paper plate saucers, crayons, scissors, glue, stapler and staples.

** NOTE: ** I enlarged/photocopied the cat's body onto A3 sheet. You will see where the fold is meant to go - I usually get the children to fold their own papers.

** What you need to do: ** 1. Colour in all the photocopied parts and the paper plate.

2. Get children to cut out 'rugby balls and soccer balls' for the eyes, 'triangles' for the noses, 'red semi-circles' for the mouth and long, black skinny strips for the whiskers. I have had these pre-cut and in different boxes ready for our pre-school children-visitors though! Glue onto the paper plate to make the face

3. When cutting out the body, make sure the paper is still folded in half. Start at one of the dark line ends and follow right around to the other end.

4. Staple up the short sides and leave the long side (opposite the folded side) open.

5. Use the left over rubbish from your body shape to stuff your cat's body. You may need more paper.

6. Staple the legs, tail and head to the body of the cat.
