Collage Ice Cream

[Craft for Toddlers] Collage Ice Cream 🍦🤍 [Wall Display]

Here are some ice cream craft ideas that also let you enjoy making collages.

Cut the cup or cone bases out of cardboard, then decorate them by drawing patterns with pens or using colored paper.

For the ice cream scoops, basically cut circles out of construction paper, and have fun adding various toppings with small pieces of colored paper or stickers.

It’s also cute to make “collage ice cream” by gluing torn newspaper or flyers onto the round paper scoops.

Once your ice cream is done, attach it to the base to finish.

Summer item! Straw hat

Summer Item: Easy! Origami 'Straw Hat' (Hiragana Guide)

Let me show you a simple way to fold a summery, breezy straw hat.

First, fold the origami paper into a triangle to make a crease.

Open it up, then fold the two left edges to meet the crease.

Next, fold the remaining corner inward to form an isosceles triangle.

Flip the paper over and fold up the base of the triangle by about 2 cm.

Fold that section down in half, then fold it up again in half to create the brim.

Fold down the top point of the triangle to shape the hat, tuck in both corners to round it out, and you’re done!

Let’s make colorful, eye-catching summer seashells.

Start by folding the origami paper into a triangle twice.

Next, fold the two middle corners outward to meet the outer corners.

Fold the left and right edges in to align with the center crease, then fold down the small triangular flap.

Again, fold the lower left and right corners in along the crease.

Fold the top corner so both sides are the same height, then tuck the corners to refine the seashell shape—and you’re done.

Enjoy crafting as you work with your hands.

Using colored pens to add patterns to the shell gives it extra dimension and is highly recommended.
