Fluffy Tissue Paper Butterflies

(Paper Pom-Pom) Easy! How to Make a Cute Butterfly [DIY]

Gorgeous and beautiful! Here are some ideas for making fluffy butterflies with tissue paper.

Let’s use tissue paper—often used for crafts with a soft, elegant look—to create butterflies that look ready to flutter away.

Tissue paper comes in a wide range of colors, so it’s great that you can combine your favorite shades.

When spreading the wings, gently and lightly fluff them out for a more beautiful finish.

Butterflies made with finger painting

Happy little fingers that stay clean! Here’s a butterfly craft idea using finger painting.

By using a zippered plastic bag, there’s no mess on their fingers, so even infants in the 0-year-old class can enjoy it—such a great point.

With finger-painted butterflies, kids can press with their fingers, step with their feet, or grab with their hands, enjoying art in any way they like.

Using their hands helps develop their senses and fine motor skills, and they can also enjoy the excitement of not knowing exactly how the artwork will turn out.

Let’s create together with the children and have fun seeing what kind of art emerges.

Butterflies drawn with colored ice water

Also great as a sensory play activity! Here’s an idea for painting butterflies using ice made from colored water.

It’s a highly recommended sensory play activity! The chill of the ice combined with the vivid colors will engage children’s senses, making the creative process fun.

As they watch the ice melt, they can enjoy the way the colors spread, making it a fulfilling activity.

It’s also nice to do on warm days out on the terrace or in the playground.

A wonderful idea to enjoy both coolness and art!

Butterflies made from footprints

It’s great that even children in the infant class can make this! Here are some butterfly craft ideas using footprints.

Using footprints in crafts is wonderful because you can keep them as a record of growth.

When you look back, seeing the size and shape from that time will help you feel how much they’ve grown.

This time, let’s arrange a child’s footprint into the shape of a butterfly.

For the butterfly wings, it’s nice to add stickers or cut out pieces from drawing paper with scribbles.

Be sure to give it a try!

Butterfly made with felt

[Spring Craft] From 1-year-olds! Easy Felt Butterfly

Combine different materials to create your favorite butterfly! Here are some felt butterfly ideas.

It’s a good idea to prepare a few types of materials in addition to felt so children can choose and mix them on their own.

Cutting the inner materials smaller than the outer ones enhances the butterfly’s three-dimensional look.

You can also use jute twine instead of pipe cleaners.

Making a favorite butterfly while enjoying the softness and colors of felt is sure to be a fun time for kids.

A butterfly incorporating decalcomania

How to make butterflies with decalcomania! Great for preschool classroom wall crafts too!

Here’s a craft idea for making butterflies using decalcomania.

Decalcomania means transferring images.

In this idea, you’ll enjoy creating symmetrical patterns on the butterfly.

First, fold a sheet of construction paper in half, draw half of a butterfly along the fold, and cut it out.

Open the paper and apply paint only to one wing.

Once the paint is on, close the paper along the center fold, rub well, then open it.

The paint will have transferred to the other side, creating a mysterious pattern! Finally, attach antennae made from a wire tie to finish.

Because the purpose of decalcomania is to enjoy freedom of expression, let the children choose the paint colors and how to use them.

Ask questions like, “I wonder what pattern we got?” to build excitement for the big reveal when they open it.

Once displayed, it will make a uniquely eye-catching wall decoration!
