[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!

[Origami] Colorful Umbrella Decoration

[Rainy Season Craft] Perfect for the rainy season! Make colorful umbrellas with origami! Great for mobiles too!

Let’s make a three-dimensional umbrella out of origami—an essential item for rainy days! The steps are very simple.

Prepare 10 sheets of origami paper, all cut into circles of the same size.

Fold each one into quarters.

Once you’ve folded all 10, glue them together one by one, stacking them up.

Finally, take a pipe cleaner, bend it into a curved shape to resemble the umbrella handle, and tape it to the center of the stacked origami.

You’re done! If you hang everyone’s creations from the ceiling, even rainy days will feel cheerful.

Try using different colors and patterns of origami to make your very own favorite umbrella.

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.

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!

[Collage] Hydrangea Craft

[June Project] Hydrangea Collage (Paper-Pasting Art)

Let’s make a hydrangea collage that’s perfect for the rainy season.

First, prepare origami paper in several colors and cut it into small squares.

Next, either cut out a rough, round hydrangea shape from construction paper and paste it onto another sheet, or draw the shape directly on the paper.

Depending on the children’s age, teachers may need to handle the step of cutting the squares and cutting out the hydrangea shape.

Once the prep is done, start pasting the square pieces of origami randomly onto the round hydrangea base! By letting the children work freely, you’ll end up with a wonderfully unique, one-of-a-kind hydrangea.

Hydrangea wreath

Hydrangeas reach their peak viewing season during the June rainy period.

Let’s make a wreath inspired by hydrangeas and hang it on the wall! Since it’s a wreath, prepare construction paper or thick paper cut into a donut shape, or a paper plate, and attach pieces that evoke hydrangea florets.

For example, flowers made from tissue paper, or small flowers made from origami.

Treat each one as a floret and stick them onto the donut-shaped base.

It’s recommended to keep the colors within the same family to give it a more hydrangea-like look.

If you add even smaller flowers made from origami on top, they’ll make a nice accent!

Hydrangea Clock

How about a wall decoration that treats hydrangeas as a clock? Hydrangea blossoms have many small flowers that form a round shape, which resembles a round clock.

You could put the clock numbers on the small petals that make up the flower, or place a snail in the center to act as the clock hands.

You could also put frogs or umbrellas above the numbers to indicate, “This is the time right now.” Even if it doesn’t keep real time, as long as the design makes it clear that the clock and hydrangea are combined, it will feel stylish and capture children’s interest!
