Coffee Filter: Blotted-Painting Umbrella

[Rainy Season Craft] Make Cute Coffee Filter Umbrellas! Perfect for the Rainy Season! [For 3-Year-Olds]

Let’s make an umbrella using a coffee filter.

First, draw patterns on the filter with water-based markers, then mist it with water to let the colors bleed.

Let the filter dry, cut a slit at the bottom, and thread a pipe cleaner through it.

Curl the end of the pipe cleaner and staple the pipe cleaner and filter together.

Flip the filter inside out to form the umbrella, bend the handle, and you’re done.

Try using water-based markers in different colors to enjoy a variety of tie-dye-style patterns.

[Marbling] Umbrella and Frog

Introduction to a Rainy Season Craft Using Marbling [Nursery/Kindergarten]

Let me share an idea for making “Umbrellas and Frogs” with marbling.

Marbling is a technique where you drip paint onto water to create patterns, then transfer them onto paper.

Fill a tray with water, then drip marbling paints onto it as you like.

Use a toothpick or skewer to create a pattern, and gently lay the paper on top.

Lift the paper, and if the pattern has transferred, let it dry.

Cut the marbled paper into an umbrella shape, glue it onto a backing sheet, and draw the umbrella handle and raindrops with a pen.

Finally, add an origami frog, and you’re done.

It’s a fun project that makes you excited to see what kind of umbrella pattern you’ll get, so give it a try in June!

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.

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.

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.

Paper Plate Umbrella Decoration Made with Paint

[Nursery/Kindergarten] Umbrella Craft Ideas ♪ Cute Hanging Decorations! [Rainy Season & June Crafts/How-To]

Let’s make colorful, pop-style umbrellas using paper plates.

The process is super simple! Start by painting the paper plate with your favorite colors.

Try incorporating techniques like finger painting, resist painting, or stamping—whatever you like.

Once you’ve painted it, cut the paper plate in half.

You can leave the edge as is, but it’s also fun to cut the rim into zigzags or wavy shapes.

Finally, roll each cut half into a cone shape, and insert a pipe cleaner—bent into an umbrella handle—through the center to finish.

A nice bonus is that one paper plate makes two umbrellas.

Display your lively, unique umbrella creations by the window or around the room to brighten up your space!
