We’re introducing a ribbon stick that’s super cute with its fluttering ribbons.

Prepare two long bamboo skewers and glue them together.

Wrap a ribbon around the skewers from the top, leaving a longer section at the upper end.

Thread a bell onto the ribbon you left, tie it, and secure it with glue.

Using the tied bell area as the center, attach about four long ribbon strips around it.

Using colorful ribbons makes it even cuter! It’s fun to let the kids choose their colors.

These ribbon sticks are perfect for showcasing a lovely performance at a sports day—give making them a try!

silk hat

How to make hats for use in a school/play performance

Many people wear top hats on special occasions.

A stylish top hat is perfect for a sports day costume, too.

Measure the size with a compass to match your child’s head shape and start making it.

Once you’ve drawn a line for the head size, make the brim as well and cut it out.

Form a tube shape with thick paper and attach it to the hat’s brim.

Finish by gluing a circle cut from construction paper onto the top of the head section.

Adding a ribbon in your favorite color makes a nice accent.

Including a dance with top hats at the sports day would really liven things up!

Fluttering Baton

[Matsuken Samba II] Dance it at recitals and year-end parties! “Clack-Clack Sticks & Easy Dance” (with a video on how to make the sticks!) by Ken Matsudaira

The Japanese-style dancers who liven up the stage behind Ken Matsudaira’s “Matsuken Samba II.” Without them, the song wouldn’t feel nearly as fun, would it? The “flutter batons” those dancers hold are perfect items for school sports day dances and cheering, too.

Just roll up a newspaper into a tube, wrap it with colorful paper, and attach pom-poms to both ends, and you’re done.

There are plenty of ways to customize it, like making the pom-poms gold or lengthening the stick.

You could even go all in, use “Matsuken Samba II” as your cheer song, and recreate the whole routine.

A chiffon scrunchie that looks like a flower

Mercari Fuurin room Handmade Stretch Chiffon Tulle Lace Scrunchie

Fluffy chiffon fabric is perfect for creating a feminine look! Just incorporating it as a small accessory for a sports day dance routine will instantly add a touch of glamour.

How about a bracelet made by tying lots of long, thin strips of chiffon to a hair elastic? It’s simple to make, so anyone can try it, and the ability to enjoy different designs by changing color combinations is part of the charm! Try making them to match the mood of the performance—warm tones, cool tones, or monochrome, whatever suits best.

maracas

Blue Sky Maracas from Plastic Bottles [Handmade Instrument] [Craft]

Maracas that make you want to shake them while shouting “Amigo, señorita!” In fact, the name is the plural form of the instrument “maraca.” There’s something about maracas that makes them fun just to shake.

They’re easy to make with plastic bottles, so creating matching maracas for your team could be a great idea.

Put eye-catching items like glittering glass marbles or toy gems into the bottle.

They pair perfectly with Latin music, so when choosing a cheer song, why not go for mambo or salsa?

folding fan

Back in the bubble era, you often saw people dancing with flashy fans, right? With retro trends making a comeback, some of you might be looking for one.

Actually, you can make that kind of fan yourself.

First, cut a clear file to create the blade pieces.

After cutting about 15 pieces, punch holes at the top and bottom.

Fasten the bottom so they overlap, and thread a string through the top holes.

In no time, your fan is ready.

Finish it off by adding feathers or fur.

You can get all the materials at a 100-yen shop, so it’s easy to give it a try!

sailor collar

[Make it in any size!] How to make a sailor detachable collar | I wore it to the Laguna × Demon Slayer event | How to make a sailor collar | Demon Slayer

Teachers planning dances for kindergarten or elementary school sports days may also be wondering about costumes.

Here’s a “sailor collar” you can add to everyday T-shirts to turn them into stylish outfits! All you need is fabric for the collar and for the ribbon.

Since you’re not making an entire garment, it’s easy to try.

You can make the pattern with copy paper, and it’s simple to sew by hand, so even those who aren’t comfortable with a sewing machine will be fine.

You can stitch the sailor-collar stripes with a machine or attach them with fabric glue.

It looks absolutely adorable on little children, so please give it a try!
