Clouds that change their shapes over time.
Some people even fall in love with clouds and aim to become weather forecasters—their charm is truly unfathomable, isn’t it? I think kids also love that fluffy cloud vibe.
If you add raindrops using plastic strips to a white cloud, it really brings out the mood.
Imagine a jellyfish and you’ll have the general form down.
Don’t forget decorations like raindrops and frogs.
To get that soft, puffy cloud texture, use a mix of shaving cream and liquid glue.
White wood glue should work as a substitute, too.
A Jumping Frog Made with a Paper Cup

Let’s make a frog toy you can play with after you build it.
Prepare either a paper cup or a toilet paper roll.
If you use a paper cup, you’ll need to cut off the bottom, so teachers, please give the children cups with the bottom already removed.
Using a single paper cup or toilet paper roll, make the frog’s body as well as parts like the legs and arms—all from the same piece.
If you want to add color, decorate each part with markers or paint before assembling them.
The finished frog will hop when you press its bottom.
For any complicated steps, teachers should assist the children as they work.
Rainy Day Bear
Let’s use the marble-rolling art technique to make a cute “Rainy Day Bear.” First, place small drops of paint on drawing paper and roll marbles over it.
Be sure to use a container with raised edges so the marbles don’t roll out.
Since this will become the bear’s raincoat, choose bright colors for a cute finish.
Once the paint is dry, cut it into the shape of a raincoat and attach the bear’s face and rain boots.
Finally, use a green paint handprint as a leaf umbrella for the bear to hold, and you’re done!
“Family Day” Photo Frame

In May and June, we have Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, which bring more opportunities to show appreciation to parents.
How about making a photo frame as a heartfelt gift to express your gratitude? One method is to cut out the photo area from a milk carton, cover it with construction paper, and color it.
There are many other ways too, such as using origami paper, toilet paper rolls, or yarn.
Feel free to adapt the method to suit your child’s age.
For the photo, consider using one taken with the parent or one that shows the child’s growth.
[Paper plate] Cute snail

Let’s make a snail using construction paper and a paper plate.
First, decorate the paper plate.
You can decorate it any way you like! You can paint it, draw with crayons, or enjoy making a torn-paper collage.
Once you’ve finished decorating the plate, cut out the snail’s body and eye parts from construction paper and assemble them.
Finally, attach the paper plate as the shell, and you’re done.
This idea works great as a craft activity and also as a wall decoration.
Give it a try and use it as a reference!
[For Ages 0–1] Crinkly Tissue Paper Snail
![[For Ages 0–1] Crinkly Tissue Paper Snail](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/yReMaf-mYdg/sddefault.jpg)
A great craft for children aged 0 to 1 is making snails using tissue paper.
First, the teacher should cut out the snail’s body, eyes, and other parts from construction paper.
Have the children crumple up lots of tissue paper in their favorite colors and stuff it into a plastic bag.
Once it’s filled to a certain point, seal the bag and shape it into a round form.
It’s best if the teacher handles the shaping step as well.
When it’s ready, attach it to the snail’s body to finish.
You’ll have a colorful, adorable snail!

Snails, which are very active during the rainy season, can be quite fascinating for children.
Observing their swirly, spiral shells and the way they move slowly can lead to many discoveries.
This time, let’s make a snail with origami.
All you need is one sheet of origami paper in your favorite color.
The steps are simple and easy to follow, making it perfect for preschool classes.
The key step is folding the corners inward on the back side to give the shell a rounded shape.
