How To Make A Rainbow Twirler

Step 1: Paint the paper plate.
Start by painting a paper plate in a rainbow pattern. We painted rainbow stripes, but you can get creative with your colors. Let the paint dry completely.
Step 2: Paint the back.
Once the front is dry, flip the paper plate over and paint the same rainbow pattern on the back side. Let the paint dry completely.
Step 3: Draw a spiral.
Next, using a pencil, lightly draw a spiral on the paper plate.
Step 4: Cut out the spiral.
Carefully cut along the spiral line that you drew.
