[Age 2] Colorful Paper Plate Umbrella

Rainy Season Craft: How to Make a Simple Mini Umbrella with a Paper Plate

Let’s use a paper plate and a pipe cleaner to make colorful umbrellas! Adults should handle the umbrella assembly.

First, let the children freely draw on the paper plates.

Once they’re done, draw lines dividing the plate into eight equal sections, like cutting a round cake.

Cut the paper plate in half, then fold along the lines to create the umbrella shape.

Thread a pipe cleaner through the center and curl the end to make the handle—your umbrella is complete.

You can make two umbrellas from one paper plate.

It might also be fun to add stickers after assembling the umbrella.

Stained Glass-Style Frog Umbrella (Age 3)

[Kindergarten/Daycare] Umbrella Craft / 3D / How to Make a Stained-Glass-Style Umbrella ♡

Some children’s umbrellas have 3D elements like animal ears or parts of vehicles, right? Here’s an idea to make a similar 3D umbrella with a frog motif.

First, use a compass to draw a circle on construction paper.

You’ll only use about two-thirds of the circle, so mark the section you’ll use.

After cutting out the inner part of the usable section, cover the cutout area with OPP tape.

Next, stick small pieces of colored cellophane onto the adhesive side of the tape, then seal it with another layer of OPP tape on top.

This will become the umbrella, so cut along the lines and roll it into an umbrella shape.

Attach the frog parts made from construction paper and add a straw handle to finish.

The frog’s eyes will pop out in 3D, making it super cute!
