[Childcare] Rainy days can be fun too! Recommended rainy-season craft ideas for June

During the rainy season, when there are more rainy days, kindergartens and daycare centers often have stretches when the children can’t play outside, which can be disappointing for them.

Here, we’ll introduce craft ideas that make those days fun.

There are projects like umbrellas, frogs, and snails that you can make to decorate the walls or play with, works that use interesting techniques, and items to make together with adults.

Choose activities that match the children’s ages and developmental stages, and try making them together.

If you decorate the room with lots of what you’ve made, you can enjoy the rainy season too!

Here’s a craft idea themed around umbrellas, perfect for the rainy rainy season.

It’s also great as a decorative item for wall displays or illustrations with a rainy-season theme.

First, fold a prepared sheet of origami paper in half.

Fold it in half again, then open it and fold both ends inward.

Open it once more, fold along the creases, and fold the corners on both ends.

Fold both ends to align with the crease, and attach a drawing of a handle to complete the umbrella.

Try making pieces that spark children’s creativity, such as decorating the umbrella with pens and stickers.

Rubber boots made from paper cups

Paper Cup Craft! How to Make Rain Boots [Easy and Cute Rainy-Season Project! Includes Tips for Fun Variations]
Rubber boots made from paper cups

Let’s make decorations themed around rain-day essentials: rain boots.

We’ll use a paper cup and construction paper.

Since a paper cup already resembles the shape of a rain boot, the steps are very simple.

Once the boot shape is complete, decorate it however you like by drawing illustrations or adding stickers.

After finishing, it’s also recommended to attach a handle using a pipe cleaner.

You can even use it as a small container, so filling it with your favorite candies or small toys and using it for a gift exchange might be a hit.
