Sixth graders grow rapidly and begin to develop their own opinions.
As they discover the joy of cooperating with friends, they also start to value their friendships even more.
Their interest in learning increases, making them eager to try many new things.
This is also a time when their creativity flourishes, so crafts are a great way to draw out those feelings.
Here, we’ve gathered unique projects that use a variety of materials and ideas.
We hope they’ll enjoy both the fun of making things and the fun of playing with friends using what they’ve made.

Kumihimo friendship bracelet

Your very own special item! Here are some ideas for kumihimo friendship bracelets.
Have you heard the word “misanga”? A misanga is a handwoven bracelet made by braiding colorful threads that originated in Brazil.
It’s worn on the wrist or ankle, and it’s said that when it breaks naturally, your wish will come true! This time, let’s try making this lovely item yourself.
You’ll need a round piece of cardboard, scissors, an awl, tape, and lace thread.
Give it a try!
Cardboard Corinth Game

Let’s make use of unwanted materials! Here are some ideas for a cardboard Corinth game.
It’s great when you can craft using cardboard boxes or empty packages from deliveries, right? This time, let’s try making a Corinth game while making use of materials you have at home.
A Corinth game is a game where you hammer pegs and make holes in an inclined board, then use a stick to flick a marble into the holes to compete for points.
You’ll need items like cardboard, a pencil, a compass, an awl, a utility knife, scissors, rubber bands, a ruler, toothpicks, and glue.
Soccer penalty shootout game

Let’s make our own game and play! Here’s an idea for a soccer penalty kick game.
It’s a great idea for those who are tired of the toys they have at home or who want to try making a game themselves.
Build a PK game and play with your family and friends! Since you’ll assemble it using cardboard and straws, it should be an exciting, hands-on project.
When using tools like a drill or a hot glue gun, be sure to check how to use them and the safety rules together with a parent or guardian before giving it a try.
Cardboard marble maze

The cardboard marble maze is a three-dimensional maze made by cutting and gluing pieces of cardboard.
Adding trapdoors along the way is also a key feature.
Part of the fun is figuring out how to roll the marble so it reaches the goal.
Give it a try! You can make it with materials like cardboard, a large empty box with a lid, glue, scissors, and marbles.
Imagine what size you want and what kind of maze you’d like to create, and then build it.
Resin crafting

Let’s make the most of kits! Here are some resin craft ideas.
Resin refers to a clear material that hardens when stimulated by heat or light.
In recent years, it’s become popular among people who handmake accessories and keychains.
This time, let’s try resin crafting using a kit.
If you place sparkling glitter, shimmer, or parts that look like dinosaur bones inside the resin and cure it, you can easily create keychains or specimen-style pieces.
Give it a try!
