For three-year-olds: A collection of craft ideas featuring spring events and creatures that you’ll want to make with your three-year-old

Spring hanging scroll

We’ll introduce how to make a spring hanging scroll that brightens up your room with a spring-like touch.

Prepare branches, construction paper, tissue paper, tapioca straws, glue, and scissors.

After choosing the color of the construction paper for the base of the hanging scroll, glue a branch onto white construction paper to set the center of the cherry tree.

Glue tissue paper onto circles cut from construction paper, then attach them around the branch.

By using pink for the cherry blossoms and green for the leaves as they start to appear, you can express the changing of the seasons.

Glue tapioca straws to the top and bottom of the hanging scroll, thread a string through, and it’s complete! It’s also great for spring wall displays.

Dandelions made with stamps

Get a head start on spring ✨ Creative play with recycled materials 🎨 #shorts #childcare #paints

Easy yet wonderfully eye-catching! Let’s make dandelion flowers with a stamp! The method is very simple.

Prepare a toilet paper roll and make lots of slits on one end.

Imagine dandelion petals and cut many fine slits.

Fold the cut sections outward and your stamp is ready! Draw the dandelion stem and leaves on a sheet of construction paper as the base, then use the toilet paper roll, dab it in yellow paint, and start stamping on top.

The toilet paper roll stamp is large and easy to hold, so even infants can enjoy it.

Since you can make it using familiar recycled materials, give it a try for inspiration!

[Construction paper] Flappy Butterfly

[Nursery Teacher] Super Easy! Spring Craft to Capture Children’s Hearts 🌸 [Daycare/Kindergarten]

This is a butterfly with flapping wings that you can make using only construction paper and a straw.

For the butterfly shape, either have the teacher cut it out beforehand, or, if you want to practice scissor skills, draw guidelines on the paper.

For the butterfly’s pattern, kids can scribble with pens or stick on stickers.

Once the pattern is done, fold the butterfly in half, make a valley fold down the center, and create a space to insert the straw.

When attaching the straw with cellophane tape, be sure the accordion section sits on the construction paper side.

The flapping wings are fun, and you can enjoy it both indoors and outdoors.

Soft pastel colors are so beautiful! Let me introduce an idea for making “soap bubbles” using tissue paper.

You’ll need tissue paper, white drawing paper, a spray bottle, a compass, and scissors.

First, tear tissue paper in various colors and spread the pieces over the white drawing paper.

Next, fill the spray bottle with water and spritz it to dampen the tissue paper.

Once it’s dry, remove the tissue paper and use scissors to cut the drawing paper into circles.

If you display them together with children’s photos or illustrations of straws, they’ll look even cuter.

Be sure to give it a try!

Tissue Paper Flowers: Cherry Blossoms and Rapeseed Flowers

[Spring Craft Activity] [March] [Cherry Blossoms and Rapeseed Flowers] Tear and roll flower paper, then stick it on with glue! Great for developing fine motor skills! Create a three-dimensional spring scene! [For ages 3–5]

How about making cherry blossoms and rapeseed flowers with the soft, springlike feel of tissue paper? First, spread out pink and yellow tissue paper and tear it up as you like.

Make lots of little crumpled balls from the pieces.

Next, draw a tree on construction paper with brown paint or a pen, and apply glue around it.

Stick the crumpled pink tissue paper on bit by bit to create cherry blossoms.

Then stamp some green around it and add the crumpled yellow tissue paper to make a field of rapeseed flowers.

It could also be a great way to learn about the beautiful flowers of spring.

Tear it off and stick it! Laundry

[Kindergarten/Daycare] May Tearing-and-Pasting Laundry Art/Craft

Perfect for warm spring days! Here’s a fun craft making laundry by tearing and pasting paper.

You’ll need a wide rectangular backing sheet, clothing templates, tissue paper, string, clothespins, a tree cutout, glue, and tape.

First, cut out the clothing templates with scissors.

Tear the tissue paper and paste it onto the clothing shapes.

Stick the string onto the backing sheet, then decorate with the tree, clothespins, and the clothes—and you’re done! It’s also fun to let the children choose their favorite colors for the backing sheet and tissue paper.

Hang up your original laundry and enjoy a spring-themed decoration!

Three-dimensional dandelion

Introducing how to make 3D dandelion flowers using origami! Perfect as spring decorations for March and April—why not make some and hang them on your wall? [Tsukuru-mon]

It looks just like the real thing! Here’s an idea for making a 3D dandelion.

You’ll need yellow origami paper, yellow-green origami paper, green origami paper, pink origami paper, scissors, and craft glue.

First, connect strips of yellow origami paper that you’ve cut into long, narrow pieces.

Make 1 mm-wide fringe cuts, then roll it up while applying craft glue; once it’s rolled, the dandelion flower is complete.

After making the stem and leaves with green origami paper, create a frame with the pink origami paper.

If you add some curves and motion to the stem and leaves, it will look even more like a real dandelion.
