[Craft Idea] Snow Rabbits (January–February, Winter) (Wall Decorations) (Elderly Recreation/OT/Day Services) (Childcare/Educational) (DIY)

The snow rabbit decorated with Nandina berries and leaves is an irresistibly charming craft.

Since it only involves crumpling newspaper or origami paper into balls, it’s easy for seniors to make, which is part of its appeal! It’s also great fun to enjoy with your grandchildren.

The step where you make the rabbit’s eyes using red origami is a bit intricate, so it might be a little challenging.
