Here’s a quick trivia question – what is Homer Simpson’s favorite food, is known as ‘Nun’s farts’ in French, was served to WWII soldiers and is associated with policemen in the U.S.? Here’s a clue – they aren’t ‘whole’. Still no? It’s doughnuts!!

How to make Doughnut Paper Craft for Kids:

1. First we need to get our basic doughnut shapes. While a doughnut is round with a circular hole, our doughnut paper craft is from a side view, so we’ll have an oval shape. Cut out full ovals from the brown paper for the doughnuts. For the glaze, cut out narrower ovals from orange and pink paper – keep them the same size or slightly smaller than the brown ovals.

2. Time to put a hole-in-one!! Mark holes in the center of the glaze shapes and cut them out. Keep the holes also in an oval shape to keep things consistent. Stick the glaze shapes on top of the doughnuts.

3. It’s now time for sprinkles! Use a paper punch with circular or rectangular holes to get sprinkles of different shapes. Since we’re using darker colors for the doughnuts and glaze, go with pastel shades for the sprinkles. Use glue to stick the sprinkles on the glaze.

4. Time to wrap things up! Use a pair of scissors or a paper cutter to cut out a hole in the doughnut, corresponding with the hole in the glaze. Cut a paper doily in half and stick it under the doughnut.
