[Childcare] For 4-Year-Olds! Fun December Craft Ideas

December is shiwatsu, the month when even teachers are on the run.

Nursery school.

In kindergartens, there are plenty of fun crafts not only for Christmas.

Why not enjoy winter-only December crafts and feel the season together with the children? Here, we introduce December craft ideas recommended for four-year-olds.

Try making warm, cozy pieces using yarn and tissue paper, or create wonderful works while having fun with stamping activities.

Because we treat the children’s creations as artworks, we use the term “制作 (seisaku: creation/production)” in the text.

Soap-bubble art creates unique patterns.

This time, let’s use the technique to make a snowman.

First, prepare some colored bubble solution.

Just mix soap solution into white paint thinned with water.

Dip a toilet paper roll core into the bubble solution and use it as a stamp so that two circles connect.

These will be the snowman’s head and body.

Once it’s dry, draw the face, hands, and a scarf with pens or crayons to finish a cute snowman.

A cute paper-clay snowman

♪ Original song – Chi☺︎ – Chi☺︎

Here’s a craft idea for making a three-dimensional snowman.

On a base made by attaching black construction paper to thick cardstock, shape a snowman out of clay.

Once the snowman is formed, decorate its body with any beads you like and add eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

Next, attach paper mittens to pipe cleaners and stick them into the snowman.

Finally, decorate the base with snowflake stickers and more, and you’re done! You can also put a hat on the snowman if you like.

If you prepare a variety of beads and pipe cleaners, each child will be able to create a snowman full of their own personality.

How to make a fluffy, fuzzy snowman

Stick double-sided tape onto a strip-cut piece of white construction paper, then place cotton on top.

Roll it into a ring and secure it! Connect two of these, add a hat and facial features, and you’ll have a fluffy snowman! Since attaching the hat on top of the cotton is tricky, it’s best to glue it to the paper base before adding the cotton.

For the facial features, bend and twist pipe cleaners to make them.

Depending on the child who makes it, each snowman will have a different expression, resulting in a set of unique, characterful creations.

Snowman Marionette

It’s a fun idea where the snowman dances when you move the disposable chopsticks.

Make the snowman by gluing two paper plates vertically to form the base and attaching facial parts.

For the snowman’s hands, use long, thin ribbons and add gloves made from construction paper.

Next, fix two chopsticks together at their centers by wrapping a rubber band, then open them into a cross.

Tie the snowman’s hands to two points on the chopstick cross with string.

Attach the ribbon “arms” to the sides of a vertically positioned tissue box.

Glue the paper-plate snowman to the front of the box, connect the center of the chopsticks to the box, and you’ve got a cheerful marionette!

♬ Last Christmas (Pudding Mix) – Wham!

Three-dimensional and festive! Here’s an idea for a skeleton-style Christmas tree.

You’ll need colored film, glue, green construction paper, yellow construction paper, scissors, a brown toilet paper roll, and round stickers.

First, use glue to attach the colored film onto a clear film sheet.

Next, attach a Christmas tree frame made from the green construction paper and trim off any excess with scissors.

Finally, cut slits in the toilet paper roll and insert the tree to complete it! Decorating with round stickers or adding a star made from yellow construction paper is also adorable.

Have fun stamping with clothespins! Here’s a Christmas tree craft you can make.

Materials: construction paper, clothespins, decorations like stars and a flowerpot, paint, round stickers, glue, and a thick straw.

First, dip the clothespin in paint and stamp on the paper to form the shape of a tree.

Glue a star on top and a flowerpot at the bottom, then decorate the tree with round stickers.

Finally, dip the straw in white paint and stamp any open areas on the paper to finish!
