Celebrate with this adorable Monkey Banner!

This weekend was Max’s first birthday and we celebrated by throwing an adorable Monkey themed party. We made all sorts of cute decorations for this event. Check out how to create your own delightful monkey themed birthday banner!


Start by tracing 14 circles (roughly 5” in diameter) using alternating colored paper. We added some variety by using textured and patterned paper, but you can use any colored construction paper. Cut out the circles and punch two holes at the top of each.


Trace three smaller circles for the center monkey’s nose and ears. Adhere the smaller circles to one of the larger circles, one in the center and two on the sides.


Draw each letter of your message and two dots for the monkey’s eyes and nostrils. Feel free to add more monkeys and drawings.


Layout your banner and string all circles together.


Hang across an entrance or wall to Celebrate!
