Glue a crumpled piece of tissue paper in the center of each flower.

Let’s draw cherry blossoms using only a straw!

[Using only a straw] Let’s draw cherry blossoms♪ Just stamp them—simple and cute

Make five evenly spaced cuts on one side of a straw, then spread that section out into a flower shape.

After that, just dip it in pink paint and stamp it to create a cherry blossom tree.

Beforehand, stick a trunk made from construction paper onto the backing sheet, and have the children stamp over it.

You can stamp to clearly show the flower shape, or layer the stamps to express a tree in full bloom.

After pressing the stamp onto the backing sheet, move the handle in a circular motion as it is.

That will create a clean flower shape!

Hang the strawberries on the wall and enjoy strawberry picking with the children.

Newspaper stamp fun! How to make cherry blossoms

Crumple up a sheet of newspaper and use it as a stamp to make cute cherry blossoms 🌸✨ #shorts #preschoolcrafts #cherryblossomcraft #springcrafts #fortwoyearolds #marchcrafts

Once you roll up newspaper into a ball, dip it in paint and dab away! That alone creates a cherry blossom craft perfect for spring.

After stamping on cherry-colored construction paper, cut it out to resemble the blossoms on a cherry tree.

Combine it with a trunk made from brown construction paper and attach everything to the base to finish.

For the base, prepare construction paper in sky blue to suggest the sky and green to suggest a spring field.

By adding green only to the lower part of the blue paper, you can represent a cherry tree blooming on a hill.

Besides deep pink, I think using white or yellow paint will also look beautiful.
