Emoji Paper Plate Craft
These paper plate emojis are so great not only because they’re cute, but they’re a great way to teach kids about emotions. And, I have to admit, my favorite emoji is the eye-roll emoji. – From Natural Beach Living

Emoji Folding Tables
Have a circular table you want to spruce up? Turn them into fun emoji folding tables. How fun would one of these look in your child’s room or the playroom? You could also donate them to a local preschool or display them in your yard! – From Tried and True
