Butterfly flower hair clip

[Summer Vacation Craft] Butterfly & Flower Clips – also lovely as interior decor

Let’s make adorable butterfly and flower clips.

In the video, the butterfly part uses store-bought pieces, but you can also cut your own from sturdy materials like construction paper.

First, decorate the butterfly freely with colored pencils or beads.

Then simply use a hot glue gun to attach the butterfly to a clip, and you’re done! You can make the flowers the same way: punch out lots of flower shapes from origami or construction paper, layer them, and glue them to a clip.

They’re perfect not only for holding books and notebooks, but also as cute interior decorations.

These bright, cheerful accessories will liven up your mood—give them a try!

Kaleidoscope in an ice cup

[Elementary School Summer Crafts / Independent Research] 🌻 Kaleidoscope with Ice Cream Cups

A kaleidoscope where you can enjoy geometric, mysterious shifting patterns.

Let’s make one using an ice cream cup.

First, use nail polish remover to erase the text and images on two ice cream lids.

Next, cut aluminum foil to your preferred length, fold it three times, and shape it into a long, narrow rectangle.

Cut it into shorter pieces, roll each into a tube, and secure with tape.

Make many small tubes and pack them tightly into the ice cream cup with no gaps.

Then put on a lid, sprinkle beads and pieces of translucent origami paper cut into small shapes on top.

Finally, place the second lid over it and tape it in place to finish.

Point it toward the sunlight and spin it to play.

Let’s make rock candy

[Independent Research] Why Does Rock Candy Form? ~With Summary~ [Experiment Time]

Let’s try making sparkling, magic-like rock candy for a science project.

Prepare granulated sugar, water, sticks, wooden chopsticks, glass cups, liquid food coloring, and a pot.

Put the granulated sugar and water into the pot and simmer until it boils.

Wet the tip of the stick with sugar water and coat it with granulated sugar.

Pour sugar water and your favorite color of liquid food coloring into a glass cup, then sandwich the stick between a pair of chopsticks and set it so the stick doesn’t touch the bottom of the glass.

Cover with plastic wrap and leave it for 3 days to 1 week while observing.

Take photos and keep records to track any changes you see.

Musical instruments made from empty cans

[WakuWaku-san’s Craft Class] Make “can instruments” out of empty cans—build them and play them! (We’re introducing two can instruments!)

Let’s have fun making can instruments from empty cans.

Here, we introduce two instruments: an ocarina and another instrument that produces a scale alongside it.

Use an aluminum can for the ocarina and a steel can for the other instrument.

First, here’s how to make the ocarina.

Remove the pull-tab from the can, and tape a slightly thick straw to the mouth opening.

On the side of the can near the mouth opening, use a punch to make five holes spaced 2 centimeters apart.

Make one more hole at the top on the opposite side, and it’s done! For the other instrument, remove the can’s pull-tab and rub the bottom with something hard like a chopstick.

The pitch will change, so adjust it to the notes you want and line them up.
