At this stage, fourth graders are interested in colors and shapes and can more freely express themselves by using a variety of materials and tools to bring their ideas to life.
Crafting is also an important experience for thinking and learning.

Handmade chenille keychain
@n.annlee321 Yuraaan♪ It looks so cute when you display it 🥹💕ParentingChildcaretranslation#Kindergarten#HandmadeToysChildcare

Let’s make a cute bee keychain.
First, stick double-sided tape all over a chenille stem and shape it into a rectangle.
Wrap a yellow chenille stem around it, then wrap a brown one to create the stripes.
Make wings from a clear file sheet, attach them to the body with the brown chenille stem, and add eyes.
Finally, attach the keychain hardware and you’re done! With a bit of creativity, you can make all kinds of insects and animals, so try making your own original keychains.
Handmade Happy Noodles
@n.annlee321 A pretty surprising way to make noodles 🤣 The packaging turned out so cute 🥹💓#DesignedWithCanva#CanvaPartner

Looks just like the real thing! Let’s handcraft some happy noodles.
Flatten a cotton ball made from yellow embroidery thread to form a lump of noodles.
Also, wrap another embroidery thread around chopsticks and soak it in water mixed with liquid starch.
Once it dries and you remove it, it will turn into curly noodles, so make some of those too.
Use a small paper cup as the container and attach a package label you designed with a design app.
Put in the noodles and a packet of toppings, then stick on the lid to finish! You might even be able to use it as a keychain if you add some parts.
Cute mysterious bottle

A mysterious bottle where two liquids won’t mix even when tilted.
It’s a fun idea that works great as interior decor or a small gift.
First, fill the bottle about halfway with baby oil.
Next, add colored water tinted with food coloring.
Put in glitter or holograms as you like, cap it, and decorate the bottle to make it cute—and you’re done! The method is very simple, so even younger elementary school children can enjoy making it.
Along with the craft, try summarizing both your own ideas and the correct explanation for why baby oil and water don’t mix.
Cute goldfish scooping

When you think of summer, you think of festivals—and goldfish scooping, right? Let’s make a cute, handmade goldfish scooping game and have some fun! Prepare a cardboard box as the base and cut several slits into the sides.
Thread a thick blue string across the slits to represent water and create an aquarium.
Next, cut a paper cup to make a ring from the rim.
Attach a popsicle stick as the handle, and glue tissue paper to the inside of the ring to complete the poi (scooper).
Finally, tie individually wrapped candies with rubber bands, add eyes to make goldfish, and you’re done.
Arrange the goldfish in the aquarium and try scooping them up with the poi!
Puru-Koro Soap

It’s like a jewel! Let me show you how to make cute, jiggly soap.
You’ll need liquid hand soap, gelatin, hot water, and food coloring.
Dissolve the gelatin in hot water, then mix in the liquid hand soap.
The trick is to stir slowly so it doesn’t foam.
Add food coloring, pour into a flat container, and chill in the refrigerator for 1–2 hours.
Then just cut it into your favorite shapes and you’re done! It looks adorable and might make handwashing more fun.
Just be careful to prevent small children from accidentally swallowing it.
