Preschool: Hydrangea craft ideas, including target ages and techniques

Hydrangea Snail

When you think of flowers that suit the rainy season, hydrangeas come to mind.

Here’s a lovely craft that combines hydrangeas and snails! Make the snail’s body by cutting construction paper or similar materials.

Let your child draw the face, and you can decorate the antennae with pom-poms.

For the snail’s spiral shell, crumple tissue paper into small balls and glue them on.

Since tissue paper is very soft, even small children can safely enjoy this craft.

[Sponge Stamps] Hydrangea Craft

[Kindergarten/Daycare] Hydrangea art and crafts with June stamps

Let’s make June’s flower, hydrangeas, using stamps.

Cut a sponge into a square and wrap two rubber bands around it in a cross.

Now the hydrangea stamp is ready.

Next, cut out the hydrangea base and leaves from construction paper.

For 2-year-olds, it’s better for an adult to do the cutting.

Have the children use the stamp to add patterns to the hydrangea.

Dip the stamp in paint and dab it on.

Finally, attach the leaves and it’s complete.

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.

Clock with a snail and hydrangeas

[Kindergarten/Daycare] Rainy season clock craft / Hydrangeas / Snails / Frogs / Makes sounds / Stands on its own / How to make a clock craft ♡

This is a craft idea where the snail’s shell becomes a clock.

Cut the snail’s body, eyes, and four hydrangea flowers out of construction paper.

Make a hole in the center of a paper cup and thread a pipe cleaner through the hole to act as the clock hands.

Attach the hydrangea flowers with numbers written on them, and after applying double-sided tape around the area, decorate with torn flower paper.

Glue the cup in place with the snail’s body sandwiched in between, attach the eyes to the body, draw the face, and you’re done! Since the snail will tip over as-is, be sure to cut off the bottom portion of the cup.

Crumpled origami hydrangea

Easy original hydrangea with origami! Includes kids' crafting process!

This is a hydrangea craft expressed by crumpling origami.

Since you simply squeeze and crumple the paper in your hands, all you need is finger strength—no tools required.

It’s a simple craft idea that’s perfect for children around one year old.

If the teacher prepares the hydrangea base, as well as leaves and snails to decorate around it, the activity will go smoothly.

Prepare three sheets of origami in different colors, and just glue on the crumpled pieces to finish.

Crumpling the origami lets children enjoy the tactile sensation, so it’s highly recommended.

Torn-paper collage: Creating vibrant hydrangeas

[Origami Play] Hydrangea: Ajisai / A perfect educational craft for children using origami [Paper Collage]

Let’s try making torn paper art (chigiri-e) by tearing colorful construction paper and origami.

We’ll paste the torn pieces onto a hydrangea base prepared by the teacher.

You can enjoy the tactile feel of tearing and ripping paper.

If you tear the pieces too small, it can be difficult when gluing them, so it’s best to tear them a little larger.

Also, the thickness and texture of different papers—like origami and construction paper—change how it feels to tear them.

This is a craft idea that lets you enjoy a variety of sensations with your fingers while you create.

[For ages 4–5] Hydrangea Craft

[June ☔🐌] Introduction to our craft project. Suitable for all ages 🩷

Making hydrangeas using origami and construction paper is recommended for children aged 4 to 5.

Cut the construction paper into a cloud-like shape, then make small flowers out of origami to form the hydrangea and paste them on.

For the small hydrangea flowers, it’s best to use smaller-sized origami.

If you don’t have small origami, cut a regular sheet into four pieces and use those.

Also, if you fold circular pieces of origami, you’ll create a different kind of hydrangea flower than with square origami.

You can combine both types of flowers, or use just one—either is fine! Encourage the children to think for themselves about how to arrange the small flowers as they create their work.
