Handprint: Frog and Hydrangea

Make it with handprints! 🐸 Mr. Frog 🐸!! ~June craft~ #JuneCraft #Handmade #AtHomeTime #Crafts #Daycare #Handprints #Hydrangea #Frog #RainySeason

Here’s a craft idea to make a frog and hydrangeas using handprints.

Stamp both of your handprints onto white construction paper and cut them out with scissors.

Cut a frog shape from green construction paper and draw its face.

After cutting out the hydrangea base, glue on pieces of torn origami paper.

Cut out hydrangea leaves from construction paper as well and draw the veins.

Glue the handprints to both ends of the frog piece, then attach the hydrangea in the center—done! You can put it straight on the wall, or draw raindrops on a backing sheet and stick it on top for a cute touch.

[Origami] Colorful Teru Teru Bozu

How to Make a Teru Teru Bozu [Easy and Cute Origami Craft to Make with Kids]

Let’s make colorful and cute teru-teru bozu using accordion-folded origami! First, stack origami papers of different sizes and fold them together in an accordion style.

Since they can slip when just stacked, it might be better to glue them together before folding.

Once you’ve finished the accordion fold, fold it in half and glue the edges together.

Draw a face and a ribbon on another sheet of origami, cut them out with scissors, and stick them onto the accordion-folded body of the teru-teru bozu.

Finally, attach a string to the back of the head for hanging, and you’re done!

Paper Plate Resist-Painting Umbrella

[Nursery/Kindergarten] Resist-Painting Umbrellas Made with Paper Plates [Rainy Season Craft]

Here’s a perfect craft idea for June: a resist painting umbrella.

First, use crayons to draw umbrella patterns on the back of a paper plate.

Once you’ve finished the patterns, paint over them and enjoy the resist effect.

If you thin the paint with plenty of water, it will repel nicely from the crayon.

Cut a slit in the paper plate and overlap the cut edges to form the umbrella shape.

Make a small cut on one end of a straw and open it up; then tape it to the back of the umbrella-shaped paper plate, and you’re done! If you bend the accordion part of the straw, it becomes the umbrella handle.

Bubbly Hydrangea

[Kindergarten/Daycare] June Hydrangea and Snail Art/Crafts

Let’s try painting hydrangeas using bubbles.

Mix paint, water, and dish soap in a cup, then blow into it with a straw.

Bubbles will form, so make enough for them to rise over the rim of the cup.

Place drawing paper over the cup to pick up the bubble patterns, then let it dry.

Cut the paper into hydrangea shapes and glue them onto a backing sheet along with paper leaves that have leaf veins drawn on them.

Draw a snail in the empty space, and you’re done! If the children are around 3 years old, they can practice using scissors by cutting out the leaves and hydrangeas themselves.

Stained-glass-style snail made with plastic cups

[Rainy season craft♪] Stained-glass-style snails♪ How to make snails with a plastic cap☆

Let’s make a stained-glass-style snail using clear plastic cups.

Cut cellophane into suitable shapes with scissors and place the pieces inside a cup.

When you stack another cup on top, it looks like stained glass.

Make the snail’s face and tail from cardboard, and tuck the ends between the cups.

Create eyes from construction paper, draw the pupils, attach them to a pipe cleaner, and fix it to the snail’s head to finish.

When stacking the cups, adjust the cellophane so it sits along the sides rather than collecting at the bottom.

Hydrangeas made with torn-paper collage

Let's make hydrangeas! (Preschool class)

Would you like to try making hydrangeas with torn-paper art? Cut construction paper into strips, then into small squares.

Next, cut out a hydrangea base with scissors, and glue the small squares onto it.

Finally, cut leaves from construction paper and attach them behind the base.

Your hydrangea is complete! Using two colors of paper for the petals will make it look nicer.

Since three-year-olds may not be used to scissors yet, proceed gradually when cutting.

@hoiku.labo

[Rainy Season Craft] Easy 3D Umbrella with Sponge Stamps ☔ Preschool Craft | For Nursery Teachers | Ideas for Childcare | Make Together with Kids | Paper Plates | Sponge Stamping | Stamp Play | Rainy Season Craft

♪ Original Song – Craft Ideas for Childcare ♪ Hoiku Kyujin Labo – Hoiku Kyujin Labo | Nursery Teacher Job Changes and Helpful Information

Here’s an idea for making an umbrella using a paper plate and pipe cleaners.

First, attach a sponge to a chopstick to make a stamp.

Next, cut a paper plate in half and use the paint-covered stamp to add color.

Prepare a few paint colors and finish it in your favorite colors and patterns.

Finally, glue a pipe cleaner to the inside of the paper plate as a handle, then roll the plate into a cone shape so it looks like an umbrella, and you’re done! If you curl the end of the pipe cleaner that sticks out from the top of the umbrella, you can hang it with thread as a decoration.
