Make A Paper Cactus

Materials needed

  • Paper (we used cardstock but you can use any kind of thick paper)
  • Scissors
  • Glue gun and glue sticks (regular school glue will work too)
  • Cactus template (you can download this free printable here)

To make your cactus, cut one sheet of cardstock into two pieces that are each 3 1/2 inches by 7 1/4 inches long. Fold along the dotted lines in the picture above. Cut the second sheet of cardstock into two pieces that are each 4 1/4 inches by 6 3/4 inches long. Fold along the dotted lines in the picture above. 

Using a pencil or pen, draw stalks on all four corners of each folded piece and then color with green paint or marker if desired! You may want to put newspaper down under your table since there will be some splatter from coloring with paint or marker! 

Then place both long folded pieces on top of each other so that their stalks match up and tape them down where they meet at an inside corner so they won’t move around while working on them later (see photos). Now it’s time for assembly! Take those short folded pieces and put glue around where they’ll fit inside one another; then press together firmly until secure (this takes some muscle power). 

Next, take those paper clippies we made earlier out of construction paper squares & insert them into holes cut out at ends where we glued together sections; then wrap pipe cleaners around bases before taping onto backsides with masking tape to hold everything securely together until dry (if using regular school glue instead). Finally, add pom poms & straws for decoration!

Make A 3d Paper Owl

To make the paper owl, you will need

  • cardboard or similar material (optional)
  • 3D glue to stick the pieces together (optional)
  • a large piece of green construction paper or similar material
  • colored pens/pencils/crayons/etc.

You can make the paper owl stand up by cutting small pieces of cardboard and then gluing them to each side of it. 

You can also cut out its feet and glue them on so that it looks like it is walking. You can add details like eyes and feathers with your crayons or colored pencils! 

To make it move, take some string and tie one end around its leg; then attach another string at the top of its head; this will allow you to flip him over so that he looks like he’s flying! If you want him to talk, use our free app Papercraft Owl Maker Pro™!

Make A 3d Geometric Caterpillar

What you need to make a 3d geometrical caterpillar

  • A piece of cardboard measuring 25cm by 20cm.
  • Scissors.
  • Strong glue, such as PVA or superglue.

Make A 3d Egg Carton Flower

Materials

  • 3 egg cartons
  • Scissors
  • Glue stick or glue gun (optional)

Make A Craft Stick Robot

Making a craft stick robot is a fun and easy way for kids to learn about the principles of robotics! You’ll need

  • Craft sticks (we used 12)
  • Two pieces of paper (we used construction paper)
  • Scissors

Make A Paper Robin

  • What You’ll Need
  • Paper (any color)
  • Scissors
  • Pencil or pen

Make A Salt Dough Octopus

This octopus is made with a salt dough recipe and a few simple materials.

Create the octopus body by rolling out the dough and cutting it into an 8-inch-long log.

Use a paintbrush to paint on any colors you’d like before letting the octopus dry completely.

Attach pipe cleaners for tentacles by poking holes at each end of your dried octopus, threading one end through an armature (pencil), and lacing them together with yarn or twine. 

Pinch off pieces of pipe cleaner for additional length if needed! Tie knots at each end and glue them down so they don’t wiggle around when you move your little guy around 🙂

Make Tissue Paper Flowers

Tissue paper flowers are an easy craft for kids to make, and you can use all sorts of different colors, sizes, shapes, and types of tissue paper. 

You can even mix up the types of glue you use: white glue works best for stiffer papers like parchment or cardboard; hot glue is good for soft crepe-paper type sheets; Mod Podge® makes a great sealant that glues everything together without having to worry about your creations falling apart!

After making one flower using whatever color combination you choose, arrange them on top of each other so it looks like one big flower. Once finished with this step add some colorful dots around the edge with markers or paint if you want!

Make A Milk Carton Robot

You’ll need

  • A milk carton
  • Paint, pens, paper, and glue (you can add more things to your robot if you want)
  • Scissors
  • An adult should help with cutting the milk carton.
  • First, cut the milk carton into a robot shape.

Then, paint and decorate your robot however you like! Add eyes, nose, and other details with paint or markers. You can even draw on his arms and legs if you’d like him to have them!

Once he’s dry (this may take some time), use scissors to cut out his eyes and nose from paper so they look like they’re made out of wood too!

Make Puffy Cupcake Toppers With Pom Poms

Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of your cupcake tin.

Using the provided template, cut out 5 circles from the felt in each color you chose (5 total). You may want to trace around the template on your paper before cutting them out so they will be symmetrical and they all match!

With a pair of scissors, cut along the dotted line shown in each template piece below:

Take one pom and wrap it around each circle, tucking under at least 2 inches on both sides before securing with glue or tape – make sure that you don’t pull too tight!

Allow them to dry overnight then place them on top of some delicious cupcakes for an adorable decoration!

Make An Egg Carton Chicken Craft

To make an egg carton chicken craft, you will need

An egg carton. You can use any size, but I used a standard-sized one.

Paper. Any type of paper will do; construction paper and tissue paper are great for this project because they’re easy to cut and glue onto the egg carton.

Scissors and glue stick (or other types of glue). Your child may help with these steps if they are old enough to handle scissors without hurting themselves or others! You’ll want your child to use their own scissors so that they don’t get mixed up with the adult pair!

Pom poms and markers for decorating the chicken body parts once they’ve been made; crayons or glitter if you’d like these details too.
