Let’s make a Daruma decoration with a lovely yarn texture.

First, cut a circle out of the center of a paper plate.

Then use a hole punch to make evenly spaced holes around the inner rim.

Thread red yarn through one of the holes and tie a knot so it won’t slip out, then enjoy lacing the yarn through the holes as you like.

When you finish lacing, glue on the Daruma face and body pattern pieces made from construction paper over the yarn, and decorate the plate with stickers or plum blossoms to complete it.

Add a string for hanging, and it can be displayed like a wreath!

Fun with black construction paper! Making snowmen

@hekimen_25

Winter craft: We made snowmen using crayons and paint! ⛄️❄️🎵#Childcare Crafting#Wall CreationNursery teacher / Childcare workerI tried making itSnowman

♬ Merry Christmas and Happy New Year – neozilla

Here’s a craft idea: paint a snowman with white paint on black construction paper, then finish by adding a paper bucket and mittens, plus face stickers.

For the snowman, draw a circular outline and fill it in with paint.

Because it’s surprisingly hard not to paint outside the lines, if infants are doing this activity, it’s better to either prepare pre-painted pieces or have an adult cut a snowman shape from the child’s white-painted paper and glue it onto the background.

If you put double-sided tape on the back of the bucket and mittens, kids can use them like stickers, making them easier for little hands to handle.

Once the snowman is done, use cotton swab stamping to add a snowy landscape in the empty space to complete the project.

Recommended in January! Make feathers and hagoita (battledores)

[Made in January] Hagoita and Hane (battledore and shuttlecock)

Speaking of games famous for the New Year, it has to be the traditional hagoita (battledore) game.

Let’s prepare milk cartons, bottle caps, raffia tape (suzuran tape), construction paper, scissors, and glue, and make one together.

For the paddle part, cut the milk carton into the shape of a hagoita and double it up to increase strength.

If you make the handle even sturdier, it will be easier to use.

For decorations, it’s recommended to cut shapes from construction paper or origami paper.

For the shuttlecock, place two bottle caps together and insert shredded raffia tape between them, then secure it firmly with tape.

Once it’s finished, try playing with your friends and have fun.

Fukuwarai from a one-year-old!

[Fukuwarai!?] New Year’s craft from around age 1. Recommended for January. #childcareideas #childcarecrafts #DIY #crafts #handmade #homemade #preschoolteacherlife #easycrafts #YearOfTheDragon

Here are some craft ideas for making Fukuwarai with construction paper.

Just cut out the parts from the paper, glue them together, and draw patterns with a pen to finish.

With a bit of adult help—such as pre-cutting the pieces—even young children can take part.

Put double-sided tape on the facial features and let the kids enjoy sticking them on while playing Fukuwarai.

The classics are Hyottoko and Okame, but a daruma or the zodiac animal of the year also make great motifs.

Enjoy a winter craft session to your heart’s content, with a playful spirit.

A craft spinning top that 1-year-olds can enjoy!

Work No.038 “Spinning Top Making” [Handmade Toy by a Nursery Teacher]

Here’s an idea for making a spinning top that even infants can enjoy.

You’ll need a milk carton, a plastic bottle cap, and round stickers.

First, snip the four corners and open the milk carton into a cross shape.

From the edge of the square base, measure 11 cm and cut all four opened sides at that line.

Next, round off the corners and use a craft knife to make round holes near the top of each side.

Decorate with stickers, then glue a plastic bottle cap to the center, and you’re done! If it’s hard to spin using the cap, try hooking a finger through one of the side holes to spin it.

Easy and cute! Origami snow rabbit daruma

Origami Rabbit Daruma [Easy] [Winter Craft] [Childcare]

This is a rabbit snowman made with two sheets of origami paper! First, we’ll make the head: fold the paper twice to make a small triangle.

Then unfold one fold so it’s folded only once, and roll-fold the base of the triangle about 1 cm.

Next, leave a small gap in the center and fold both corners straight up.

These will be the rabbit’s ears, so fold the top corners into small triangles to round them off.

Fold the left, right, and bottom corners inward to tidy the outline, then flip the paper over.

Fold the corner at the base of the ears to the back to finish the head.

For the body, do a cushion fold (zabuton fold), flip the paper over, and do another cushion fold.

Finally, fold the square into a triangle and you’re done! Glue the two parts together and draw the face to finish.

Easy to make! 3 New Year decorations

Crafts: Easy New Year’s Projects [Daycare/Kindergarten]

Here are three New Year decoration ideas: “Shishimai (lion dance),” “Daruma,” and “Ema (votive plaque).” For the shishimai, cut out parts from construction paper, glue them together, and use a toilet paper roll as a stamp to create the body’s pattern.

For the daruma, draw a face on a paper plate and stick torn pieces of red and yellow origami paper around it.

Use yellow for the decorative patterns, tearing it into long, thin strips.

Lastly, for the ema, first cut cardboard into the shape of an ema to make the base, then cover the surface with gold origami paper.

Glue a slightly smaller piece of white construction paper on top, write your wish, and add patterns with stickers or pens to finish it off brightly.

When you want to display them, attach a ribbon or string to each one.
