If a child has gotten bored with drawing, why not suggest torn-paper collage? Torn-paper collage is a technique where you express something using pieces torn from origami or construction paper.

Tearing paper is fun for children, so they’ll likely become absorbed in the activity.

To keep things clear when making the collage, it’s a good idea to sort the pieces by color into separate containers.

The key is to keep it enjoyable, so prepare motifs with a level of difficulty suited to the child’s stage of development.

These days, 100-yen shops have an abundant selection, with a wide variety of products ranging from handy everyday items to curious things whose purpose isn’t obvious at first glance.

Have you heard of rainbow paper in the stationery section? It’s a great item where, when you draw with the included stylus, the black surface layer gets scratched away to reveal a vivid rainbow-colored base underneath.

Christmas cards made with rainbow paper are really lovely—if you decorate them with star-shaped stickers or glitter, they become even more beautiful, shimmering in seven colors.

Christmas card with photos

Super Easy: Three Cute, Simple Handmade Cards You Can Make with Kids [Christmas/Birthday]

It’s quite common to want to give photos as gifts to family and relatives who live far away.

These days we often attach them to emails or use apps, but printed photos have a different kind of warmth.

With that in mind, I’d like to suggest making Christmas cards with photos.

Instead of just sticking the photo on, you can add a fun touch by making it pop up or sliding it into slits.

Also, if you’re mailing them, be sure to protect them so they don’t get wet.

You can finish them off with a touch of glamour using sequins, or decorate them with washi tape and ribbons.

Write messages of thanks to family and friends on the inside of the card and give them as a heartfelt gift.
