Tadpoles are the larvae of frogs that appear in places where water collects, such as rivers and ponds.

Let’s create an artwork that can be used in illustrations with a rainy season theme.

First, cut a folded sheet of black origami paper, then fold it again while imagining a fish-like silhouette.

Attach round stickers with eyes drawn on them, and then stick the pieces onto a backing sheet to finish.

You can also try adding multiple tadpoles, or creating them together with seasonal illustrations like frogs and hydrangeas.

Give this crafting idea a try to brighten up wall displays on rainy days.

Here are some craft ideas themed around snails, the quintessential creatures of the rainy season.

Let’s make various kinds of snails—from ones you can place in a room to wall-hanging decorations! If you’re using construction paper, we recommend adding patterns with batik techniques or stamping.

Once you roll the construction paper into a spiral, attach eyes made from pipe cleaners to finish.

If you’re using a paper plate, you can depict the snail’s pattern with torn-paper collage.

You can also put tissue paper into a clear bag to create a three-dimensional snail.

Try making projects that harness children’s free and creative ideas.

Use a paper plate as the base, add floral decorations and other embellishments to make it colorful, and design the clock hands so they can move.

That way, kids can learn to tell time while playing.

Once the base and decorations are complete, add a Kerokerokeroppi made from construction paper.

Using a frog—an animal that represents rainy days—as the theme also gives the piece a seasonal feel.

Hydrangeas are clusters of small blossoms.

Try expressing that shape with a frothy, bubbling solution.

The dreamy result is sure to delight children.
