Protect your wound! Here’s an idea for making Anpanman bandages.
You’ll need bandages, red round stickers, a white pen, and a black pen.
First, use the white pen to draw patterns on the red stickers.
Next, stick three round stickers onto the bandage.
Finally, draw Anpanman’s eyes and mouth with the black pen, and you’re done! It’s a fun idea you can use even when you don’t have character bandages on hand.
Give it a try!
Making bath bombs with candy molds

Fun to make, and a joy to use! Let me show you how to make bath bombs using candy molds.
You’ll need a dish or other container, a spoon, baking soda, citric acid, potato starch, essential oil, food coloring, water, and empty candy containers.
Anpanman gummy molds are so cute that it feels like a waste to throw them away, right? How about mixing the ingredients and hand-making your own Anpanman bath bombs? If you make them with kids, it’ll feel like a fun science experiment that gets them excited.
Mall beaded ring

A stylish item that’s uniquely yours! Here are some ideas for making pipe-cleaner rings.
Some children may admire the accessories worn by adults or the princesses they see in movies.
In those cases, we recommend pipe-cleaner rings, which let you create your very own accessories.
All you need is pipe cleaners in your favorite colors and scissors.
When cutting the wire inside the pipe cleaner, it’s best to work together with a parent or teacher to prevent injuries.
Try getting creative with character motifs or colorful designs!
Embroidered ribbon strap

Make it with Indian embroidered ribbon! Here are some ideas for embroidered ribbon straps.
Indian embroidered ribbon is said to be a component used to decorate the hem of the iconic garment worn by Indian women, the sari.
They’re full of charm, featuring delicate yet glamorous patterns, and some even include sparkling accents woven in.
This time, let’s use Indian embroidered ribbon to make an embroidered ribbon strap.
You’ll need Indian embroidered ribbon, a backing board or plastic sheet, scissors, sequins, extra-strong double-sided fabric tape, keychain hardware, and the like.
It’s a wonderful idea that feels like a little talisman.

Jellyfish Aquarium
@n.annlee321 Since I made this, I no longer need a night light when I go to bed 😊 Great for saving electricity. Be sure to expose the glow-in-the-dark stones to plenty of light during the day ✨ I bought all the materials at Seria. If you don’t have jellyfish stickers, it’s also fun to draw jellyfish on the bottle with a permanent marker.#sdgs Creators Grand PrixLife with children#tiktok classroom

Recommended for kids who love aquariums! You might not even need a light!? Here’s how to make a “Jellyfish Aquarium” using materials from the dollar store.
First, put glow-in-the-dark stones into a plastic bottle, then add glitter powder and liquid laundry starch.
It’s also a great idea to stick on jellyfish and other fish stickers or illustrations! Once you’ve decorated it, your original aquarium is complete.
If you don’t have glow-in-the-dark stones, how about putting in a small LED light instead? Be sure to get creative and adapt it to your children’s ages!
mini flowerpot

Perfect for handmade gifts! Here’s how to make a cute mini flowerpot.
First, stick two plastic bottle caps together all around using fabric tape.
Next, wrap twine—like jute string—around them tightly so there are no gaps, imagining a flowerpot shape.
Coil a brown pipe cleaner into a spiral, tape it onto the top of the bottle caps, then wrap your favorite ribbon around it.
Use an awl or similar tool to poke a hole in the pipe-cleaner section.
Finally, make a flower motif with pipe cleaners, plant it in the pot, and you’re done!
A floppy, cute sitting teddy bear

A seated teddy bear plushie made with faux fur has a charming combination of softness and a relaxed, floppy look.
You sew together fabric with fur and stuff it with cotton, and the way you stuff it affects how relaxed it looks in the end.
Make the parts for the face, body, arms, and legs, connect them while keeping natural transitions in mind, and attach the small parts to finish.
Pay close attention to details like the size of each part and the colors you use, and craft it with care.
