Cute seasonal decorations and keychains

This combo is so cute 🥹💕 Have fun styling it your way!#HandmadeToysParentingChildcareChildcaretranslation#Kindergarten

Using shrink plastic, fluffy pipe cleaners, and clear stickers, you can make seasonal decorations and keychains.

Cut the shrink plastic into any shape you like, then use a single-hole punch to make holes around the edges for threading the fluffy pipe cleaners.

After threading the pipe cleaners, stick clear stickers onto the transparent area in the center.

You can add a chain to make it a keychain, or hang it with a string to turn it into a suncatcher.

Swapping out a seasonally themed keychain for each season is stylish and delightful, isn’t it?

Handmade toy from an empty snack box

[Elementary School Summer Vacation Crafts/Independent Research] Handmade Toys Using Empty Snack Boxes 🌻 #SummerVacationCrafts #IndependentResearch #Crafts #EasyCrafts #PlayAtHome #HandmadeToys #DIY

Make it with an empty snack box! Here’s how to create a pom‑pom shooting game! First, prepare an empty box that once held something like Choco Pie.

Reinforce the back by attaching a wooden stick so the lid can stay open.

Next, glue wooden sticks to the top and bottom of a wooden clip and wrap a rubber band around it.

Attach a plastic bottle cap to one end, and fix the other end to the back of the box.

Finally, stick a few small paper cups inside the box wherever you like, and you’re done.

Set a cotton ball in the bottle cap and launch it with a pop—have fun playing!

Original watch

[Elementary School Craft] Original Clock

Why not try making a one-of-a-kind original clock using a DIY clock kit? First, draw diagonal lines on a canvas board and drill a hole where the lines intersect to attach the movement.

Sketch a few ideas, then paint your design with acrylic gouache based on those sketches.

To make the numbers stand out, you can create them with paper clay.

If you prepare a template that divides a circle into 12 equal parts, it will be easier to decide the placement of the numbers.

Once you finish painting, attach the movement through the hole you prepared in advance.

Craft paper hat

[Elementary School Craft] A Hat Made with Kraft Paper

Let’s try making a hat using materials like kraft paper.

First, crumple the kraft paper into a ball to soften it.

Then wrap it around your head and secure it with tape at just the right size.

Once it’s taped, feel free to adjust the length and shape as you like.

You can tear it by hand or twist it, too.

After you’ve settled on a shape, try decorating it with tissue paper or origami.

When your one-of-a-kind hat is finished, having a fashion show can be lots of fun!

Korokoro Slider

[Elementary School Craft] Rolling Ball Slider

Make it easily with cardboard! Here’s how to build a rolling slider.

It’s super simple! Prepare a piece of cardboard cut into a rectangle, then use smaller pieces of cardboard to make features like hills and tunnels, and tape them on with packing tape.

We recommend deciding the course and rules however you like and writing them with a permanent marker.

For the ball, crumpled aluminum foil or a marble makes it extra fun.

You can expand the play by turning it into a soccer game, or by using a large sheet of drawing paper as the base—there are lots of ways to enjoy it, whether you’re playing alone or with friends.

Let your imagination flow and create a one-of-a-kind toy of your own!
