Start by painting the front of your paper plate.

The next step is to print out the free monster craft template and then cut out each of the pieces of the template.

Trace and cut out the eye and teeth on white paper, the antennas on black paper, and the mouth on orange paper.

Grab a black marker or black paint pen and draw black circles on the eye to create an eye, as well as draw a black line inside the monster's mouth. 

Glue the eye and mouth on the front of the paper plate. For a friendly monster, glue the mouth in a smile shape. For scary monsters, glue the mouths upside down and make a frown. 

Lastly, glue your antennas to the top back of the paper plate and glue the teeth to the mouth along the black line.
