[For Age 3] Let’s make it in April! A collection of craft ideas to feel spring events and nature

Dandelions made from tissue paper

Soft and gentle vibes that are so cute! Here’s an idea for making dandelions with tissue paper.

You’ll need yellow tissue paper cut into quarter-size pieces, a round backing sheet, a stapler, and scissors.

First, accordion-fold the tissue paper and staple it in the middle.

Next, make three snips on both sides with scissors, then gently open up the tissue paper.

If you cut a bit deeper, it looks even cuter! Finally, glue the tissue paper onto the round backing to finish.

Try combining it with leaves and a stem made from construction paper.

Adventure – YOASOBI

Make it with a plastic-bag stamp! Here’s a craft perfect for spring: a flower field.

First, tie the bottom of a plastic bag and turn it inside out, then blow in some air and tie it closed.

Next, squeeze out your favorite paint colors and dab paint onto the bottom of the bag.

Stamp it onto construction paper to create flower shapes! Use lots of colors to make a whole flower field.

Add glitter or any decorations you like—they’ll look adorable.

[Tissue Paper] Fluffy Rapeseed Blossoms

Let’s make springlike rapeseed blossoms (nanohana) using construction paper and tissue paper.

Cut the parts for the rapeseed flowers from construction paper.

There are four parts: the flower base, stem, leaves, and flowers.

For the flower parts, cut a strip of origami paper into short pieces, layer them in a cross shape, and glue them together.

Place a round sticker in the center.

Once all the parts are cut out, crumple pieces of tissue paper and glue them onto the base.

After finishing the tissue-paper step, attach the flower parts wherever you like on top.

Finally, connect the stem and leaves to the base to complete it.

We recommend preparing several shades of yellow tissue paper, from light to dark.

Japanese bush warbler

[Made with One Sheet of Origami] Easy and Cute Bush Warbler (Facing Left) Folding Tutorial ◇ Origami Japanese Bush Warbler — Spring Little Bird, Uguisu ◇

‘Hoo-hokekyo!’ You can almost hear the beautiful song of the Japanese bush warbler! Let me show you an idea for making a bush warbler out of origami.

All you need is origami paper, black round stickers, and a white pen.

The bird you’ll make with this idea has a round silhouette that captures the warbler’s charm—so cute! If you also make plum blossoms from origami or construction paper and display them together with your origami warbler, it creates a lovely, atmospheric scene.

Give it a try and have fun making it!

Easter garland

Easter Garland [Craft]

Let’s make the venue festive for the Easter event! Here are some ideas for Easter garlands made with construction paper.

Prepare construction paper in your favorite colors, decorative materials like stickers and washi tape, jute twine, a pencil, a ruler, double-sided tape or tape glue, scissors, and a hole punch.

Cut the construction paper into egg shapes and decorate them however you like! Using sparkly materials and patterned washi tape will make the finish even more vibrant.

Dandelions made with stamps

Get a head start on spring ✨ Creative play with recycled materials 🎨 #shorts #childcare #paints

Easy yet so eye-catching! Let’s make dandelion flowers with a stamp! The method is very simple.

Prepare a toilet paper roll and make lots of slits on one end.

Add many fine slits while imagining dandelion petals.

Fold the cut sections outward, and your stamp is ready! Draw the dandelion stems and leaves on a sheet of construction paper as the base, then dip the toilet paper roll stamp in yellow paint and start stamping on top.

The toilet paper roll stamp is large and easy to hold, so even infants can enjoy it.

You can make it using familiar recycled materials, so give it a try!

Make a little snake and go for a spring walk

[Ages 1–2] Let’s go for a walk with the Wiggly Snake!

Here’s a craft to make spring walks even more fun: a wiggly snake! Prepare construction paper, twine, scissors, crayons, glue, and stickers.

Draw on the construction paper with crayons, then add stickers or pieces of cut origami paper.

Using scissors, cut the paper into a spiral snake shape.

If you draw guide marks where you’ll cut, it will be easier.

Attach the twine to the head, and you’re done.

Take your freely wiggling snake for a walk—up, down, left, and right—and have fun!
