This Rainbow Paper Plate Flower Learning Toy is such a fun way to welcome Spring and learn colors at the same time. Watch the flower change color as you turn the paper plate!

There are so many ways to learn and play with it! Here are some ideas:

1) Ask your child to say out the name of the color as he/she turns the paper plate.

2) Play this fun color search game - pick a color and ask your child to turn the paper plate until he/she finds the color.

3) Bring this changing color flower on a nature walk and ask your child to find flowers that match all the colors on the color wheel.

Scroll down for the instructions and watch the fun video tutorial!

The best thing, this is incredibly easy to make and you can totally make this together with your child!

RAINBOW PAPER PLATE FLOWER LEARNING TOY - MATERIALS:
-2 paper plates (9" each)
-A brad pin
-Paint in rainbow colors and painting materials like brushes and palettes
-Marker for drawing
-Basic stationery like a pair of scissors and ruler
INSTRUCTIONS:
Step 1: Draw lines across one paper plate to divide it into 8 equal parts.
Step 2: Paint each part in a different color to create a color wheel. I used the 7 colors in the rainbow and white. Ask your child to paint the color wheel with you. Let dry.
Step 3: Draw a small flower in the top of the second paper plate. Cut out the flower.
Step 4: Cut out a stem and leaves for the flower and paste them on the paper plate.
Step 5: Place the paper plate with the flower cut out on top and the paper plate with the color wheel below. Using a pair of sharp scissor, poke a hole in the center and through both paper plates.
Step 6: Attach the brad pin in the center of the two paper plates. Your toy is done!

We've got a wonderful project for all the felt lovers out there - grab out carrot treat pouch Easter felt pattern and make the most adorable Easter treat holder ever.

These are incredibly easy to sew together, and with just a few basic stitches they make a great project even for kids to make.

This felt project is perfect to make if you want to introduce your kdis to sewing - it's easy, doesn't require a lot of sewing and a basic stitch is used. Not to mention you end up with the most wonderful little end product.

Carrot Treat Pouch Easter Felt Pattern

What you need:

orange felt

light green felt

dark green felt

scissors

thread

needle

felt glue

pencil

template (you can grab it at the end of tutorial)

Instructions

Print the template. Cut out the shapes and trace them onto the felt - carrot shape on orange felt, leaf patterns on green - smaller on dark green and bigger on light green. You can also cut small circles as decorations (totally optional) from different colors of scrap felt.

Place the smaller of the carrot shaped felts and place it on top of the bigger one - try to align the shapes as much as possible. If working with younger kids, you can add a bit of felt glue on the edges, to hold the shapes in place while your little ones will do their sewing.

Stitch the pieces together. You can use a blanket stitch (you can see it in this felt seahorse tutorial) or with a basic running stitch (just go over and under with the thread).

Stitch all the way around of the edges, but leave the top open. As you get to the end, tie a knot.

Add a bit of felt glue to the bottom of the larger leaf and stick it on the back of the carrot pouch.

Do the same with the smaller one, gluing it to the front of the carrot pouch.

Stitch them together.

All done!

If you want to fancy it up a bit, glue a few felt dots on the carrot.

5. Add glue to the bottom of the folded butterfly wings and glue it onto your blue cardstock.

6. Add five round Avery labels at the base of the butterfly wings to create the butterfly body.

7. Glue a small googly eye onto the face of the butterfly. Then use markers to draw a smile and antennae onto your 3D paper butterfly craft. For some additional fun, draw colorful flowers at the bottom of your paper so it looks like your butterflies are out for a snack.

If you liked our previous paper rings or rolled paper flower ideas, you are going to love these adorable flower paper rings (and we have a handy template to make these easy peasy).

These are amazingly pretty and are actually super simple to make. You can make them in all colors, but we really do love the vibrant spring colors the best.

*this post contains affiliate links*

We do love a nice looking paper ring (do check our printable bug paper rings too, they are perfect for spring).

These are an adorable classroom craft (just think about the Mother's day, these along with a nice personal card, will make the most adorable little project and gift. They are also fun to make at birthday parties or as an after school activity to do together with your kids.

No need to stick with just the rings either, use our swirl flower template to make embellishments for your hair pins, bracelets and other piece of jewellery (paper ones and other).

Ready to make a set of colourful rings of your own? Print the template, grab the most colorful paper you can get your hands on and craft!

How to Make Flower Paper Rings with Our Template

What you need:

our flower paper rings template (you can grab it at the end of this tutorial)

colorful paper for flowers we use both construction paper and regular paper and both work out OK - in this one we used Astrobrights brand as the colors are just so pretty!

dark green construction paper (we used Astrobrights Gamma Green)

brighter green paper for leaves

printer

scissors

glue dots - you can work with regular white glue too, but glue dots are way more efficient and easier to use in this specific projects (kids love them too).

Alternatively you can also print these on white paper (heavier) and have the kids color and decorate their own rings however they see fit.

See the Video Tutorial

Or Go Through Our Step by Step Instructions

Print out the template (it's at the end of the tutorial). Print the flowers on a flowery color (the one we are working it has a fitting name - "Outrageous Orchid") and the ring base on green.

The base is best printed on heavier paper, while flowers can be printed on regular weight (print) paper too.

Cut out the templates. For one ring you will need one base and one swirl.

You can also trace the leaves (they are included on the sheet with the flower) pr cut them yourself, without the use of the template.

Cut into the swirl - follow the line. Now if you are using the template, the lines might show a bit on your ring.

Now comes the part that seems tricky, but it really isn't all that hard.

Start rolling the spiral, from the outer edge (it might be a bit tricky to start, but rolling it isn't all that hard).

Continue rolling along the spiral.

Once you get to the end - press a large glue dot on the last bit (the center part of the spiral).

Press the rolled part onto the glue dot (the glue dot is the base for your flower).

Press firmly (not to firm to not destroy the flower) and voila - you have your rolled little rose.

Isn't it pretty?

Cut two little leaves out of bright green paper (or skip this, depending on how you want your flower paper ring to look).

Making the Ring

Now take your green ring base. You will see a dashed line next to the half circle. Cut along that dashed line on both sides.

You've made two slits along the dashed lines, now it's time to make the ring.

All that has to be done is to slide one slit into the other.

Stick another large glue dot on the ring base.

Stick two leaves on the glue dot - on the edge - do not cover the whole dot.

Take your rolled flower and press it on the ring - on the glue dot.

All done! All there's left to do is to place the ring on your fingers.

Wonderful isn't it?

Crafts in motion are so much fun. First, you get to enjoy making the craft and then you get the added bonus of playing with it after. We have made crafts that , some that and even ones that play winter sports. Spring is just a couple of weeks away and it is the perfect time to fly a kite.

What you will need:

Paper plate

Copier paper

Acrylic or tempura paint

Crayons, markers or gel pens
Exacto knife
Low temp glue gun or tacky glue

Yarn
Kite Printable Template Directions:
Paint a paper plate in blue using acrylic or tempura paints.

Paint in clouds, birds, a sunshine, butterflies, tree tops or anything else that you want in the sky with your kite. Let the paint dry.

Paint a jumbo craft stick in the same color as your sky. (My daughter wanted to use a small craft stick for her project, as shown)

Print out the Kite Printable Template.

Design and color in the pieces of your kite.

Cut out all 4 pieces.

Glue a long strand of yarn less than halfway down your jumbo craft stick and then glue your kite and bows onto the top of the stick and over the yarn.

Because my little chose a smaller stick, we glued a second stick to hers to make it long enough and then we glued on our yarn and kite pieces.

Use a craft blade to cut a diagonal line across the lower 1/3 of your plate. (Assist young children with this step)

Carefully open up the slit cut into your plate and slide the bottom portion of your craft stick into the slit.

Flip the plate over and glue the other end of the yarn to the bottom of the paper plate.

Slide your craft stick back and forth and around to make your kite fly. Have fun and happy spring.

Make this Valentines day a stylish one with these heart paper bracelets for kids. This cool paper bracelet can be taken on and off many times so it will be in use for quite some time.

Print out or project template, let your kids get super creative with designing their piece of paper bracelet and watch their eyes shine with pride as they wear it.

*this post contains affiliate links*

We've shared many printable paper rings template with you already (just check these printable bug paper rings - they are sooo fun) and though it was about time to offer something new to go along with them. Enter the paper bracelet!

With Valentines day and Mother's day just around the corner we though it was fitting to open the series with a heart.

While our paper rings are already designed and ready to wear, we thought the heart should have, well something from the heart. That's why this one has a blank template that kids have to decorate on their own.

This will make this one a wonderful DIY gift from kids to their friends and family.

We've made a few different sizes to fit different age ranges but do keep in mind, not all printers print the same way (and leave things true to size) so do try the sizes before making this with the kids (especially if you will be making these in the classroom).

If you need even larger sizes, extend the paper strips - cut them in half an glue another paper strip between the halves to get a longer bracelet. If you need s smaller one, cut out a piece of paper bracelet and glue the remaining strip together. This is best done with clear tape.

How to Make Heart Paper Bracelets for Kids with Our Printable Template

What you need:

our printable heart bracelet template (you can grab it at the end of the tutorial - there are a few different sizes)

printer

heavier print paper (recommended) or regular print paper

coloring supplies (crayons, markers, watercolors...)

scissors

glue

Clear tape is optional - you can use it to reinforce the bracelet - by taping around the band to make it more durable.

Watch the Video Tutorial

Step by Step How to Instructions

Print our printable paper heart bracelet template (which you can grab at the end of this tutorial).

These are best printed on heavier print paper (100gms+, 70lb+). This will make it easier to color and less likely to get torn apart as kids create their own bracelets.

There are two bracelets per each sheet of paper. Under the bracelets there are two hearts to color/decorate.

If your kids want to make their bracelets in one color, they can just color in the half hearts on the bracelets themselves, if they want more intricate designs let them decorate and color the heart shapes next to the bracelets.

This will make the end design of both halves neat.

All colored in? Happy with the design? Time to cut out the shapes.

You will need one bracelet base and one heart to make on bracelet. Cut them out.

Cut the colored in heart in half (there is a dashed line on the heart but depending on colors used it might not be very visible.

Glue the colored in heart halves onto the heart halves on the bracelet.

Nice and easy. Let the glue dry for a while before you continue.

We don't want the hearts to move around.

Take the bracelet and scissors. Next to each heart half you will see a dashed line running to the middle of the paper band.

Cut along that dashed line.

Time to put on a bracelet - this last step has to be done on the hand, best by a classmate, teacher or a parent as putting it on by yourself is a bit challenging for younger kids (not impossible).

You need to slide one slit (the ones you made along the dashed lines) one into another.

Just in time for Easter, kids can learn how to make an easy paper bunny craft at school or home. This fun DIY bunny craft boasts a bobbling head and soft pom pom tail. It's the perfect spring Easter project for both kids and adults.

Paper Bunny Craft for Kids

My kids look forward to making this bobble head bunny craft every Easter! We used a variety of paper punches to make ours, but of course, that isn't absolutely necessary.

When I make this craft with a large group of kids, I find it best to use small groups with assembly line-style stations. After going through the stations, kids assemble their bunnies back at their workspace.

Station 1: Choose Paper Strip

Adults, prep a large selection of colored paper strips to choose from! Kids simply choose their color then move onto Station 2.

Station 2: Collect Supplies

At this station, kids collect their wiggly eyes, pom poms, and cardstock.

Station 3: Large Heart Punch

Kids use the large heart punch to create 2 large hearts.

Station 4: Small Heart Punch

Kids use the small heart punch to create 1 small heart.

Station 5: Petal Punch

Kids use the petal punch 4 times. Twice on pink cardstock and twice on their color of choice.

Video Tutorial: Paper Bunny Craft

Watch the video below to be guided through each step of this craft, then check out the supply list and written directions shared below. You can view more easy kids craft tutorials on our Facebook Page, Teachers Pay Teachers Page, or right here on our website.

Craft Supplies for Paper Bunny Craft

How to Make a Paper Bunny Craft

Making a paper bunny craft is easy and fun when you use paper punches! Our simple directions and step-by-step tutorial is simple for both kids and adults to follow along with.

Step 1: Prepare the Paper

1. After gathering supplies, use the rotary cutter to make a 1 ½" x 11″ paper strip. Fold the ends of the paper strip towards the middle as pictured below. Glue the 2 flaps together to create a 3D half circle shape.

2. Next, punch out 2 large hearts and 1 small heart. Use the petals paper punch to punch petals out of your main colored paper and pink (for the inner part of your bunny's ears.) The petals paper punch has 3 different sizes, so you will have to punch each paper twice. Keep the large petals of your main colored paper, and the small petals of the pink paper.

Step 2: Glue the Paper

1. Glue the small pink petals onto the large petals to make ears for your bunny, cut 1 of your large hearts in half (you will end up with 2 tear dropped shapes), then use scissors to round the point of your other heart.

2. To make the bunny's feet, glue the teardrop paper shapes and the small heart to the flat bottom of your bunny's body as pictured below. Cut a short paper strip and fold it like an accordion 4 times. Glue it to the front of the bunny's body.

3. Next, glue the bunny's ears to the back of the rounded heart.

Step 3: Make the Bunny's Face and Tail

1. Glue 2 wiggly eyes and a pom pom nose to the bunny's face, then use a black felt tip pen to make whiskers. Glue the bunny's head to the accordion fold paper strip.

2. Last, glue a pom pom to the back of the bunny for the tail.

Repeat with many colors! These little bunnies are so much fun. If you tap their heads, they bobble up and down. Kids love it!

These handprint lilies are so beautiful and surprisingly easy to make! They'd make such a thoughtful handmade gift idea for Mother's Day if you make a small bouquet and tie them together with a ribbon. Or you could make a bouquet of handprint Easter lilies if you use white paper. Can Easter lilies be pink? I think they're just white? Either way, they're adorable for spring and they're a wonderful low mess craft to make with the kids!

I had such an awesome helper when I made these paper handprint lilies! My spunky 5 year old loves crafts, and she loves helping me with the crafts that I make for the blog. It's so much fun that she's finally at an age where we can do crafts together! You know... as opposed to me making the entire craft while she watches me make the craft and "helps" makes each step more difficult. Big difference!

As a blogger, it's a lot of extra work to make crafts since I have to set up a full photo shoot and take pictures every step of the way. Usually my kids lose interest, but my 5 year old was totally into it for this one! She wanted to be part of every step and insisted that I include a photo of her and the paper lily that she made all by herself (see below!). So I have to give a big shout out to my awesome helper and hand model for this one! I loved having her at my side!

I love the idea of turning a handprint into a flower! Who would have thought they'd look so pretty!? And this craft is so simple that my 5 year old could make the entire craft all by herself. She needed a little bit of help here and there just to help her make things look tidy, but for the most part, she was able to create a beautiful paper lily all by herself.

Here's my little helper with her finished flower:

The poor thing was home from school and sick with a fever when we made it, but a little bit of crafting (and children's Advil...) made everything better and cheered her right up!

Handprint Lilies | How to Make an Easy Paper Lily

Here's what you'll need:

I used pink printer paper to make our lilies, but you could easily use construction paper. It would probably work if you made them out of thicker card stock too, they might just be a little bit harder to curve into shape.

Start by tracing the outline of your hand onto the printer paper.

Then cut out your handprint. If you have any pencil marks showing on the paper, just use an eraser to carefully erase them.

Curl the bottom of the hand shape into a cone. Leave a small hole at the tip of the cone, just large enough to fit a pipe cleaner through.

Then use a small piece of invisible tape to hold it together.

Use a ROUND pencil (not a hexagonal pencil like I'm showing in the picture below) to curl each one of the fingers of the handprint outwards. A pencil crayon, marker or round pen will also work well.

If you use a pencil with the hexagonal corners like I'm showing in the picture below, it will end up leaving little folded marks on your paper. I just forgot to go back and take a better photograph of that for you so just try to keep it in mind while you're making these.

Curl each one of the fingers outwards so that your flower looks something like this:

I ended up using one 6″ yellow pipe cleaner and one 6″ green pipe cleaner. If you don't have short pipe cleaners, just cut the standard 12″ long pipe cleaners in half.

Start by bending the yellow pipe cleaner in half:

Make a little "J" shaped hook on the end of the green pipe cleaner and loop it over the bend in the yellow pipe cleaner.

Then bend one side of the yellow pipe cleaner in half again, leaving the other side straight like in the photo below.

Pinch the "J" shape in the green pipe cleaner so it tightly holds the yellow pipe cleaner. If there's room, you can twist it a little, but as long as you pinch it tightly, it should hold itself together nicely.

Then take the longer end of the yellow pipe cleaner and wrap it tightly around the shorter side of the yellow pipe cleaner. Keep wrapping tightly until you reach the end of the yellow pipe cleaner.

Take the pipe cleaner stem and poke it through the middle of the hand print flower, pulling it all the way through so the green stem is below the flower and the yellow part is in the middle of the flower.

Then repeat all of these steps to make yourself a small bouquet! The bouquet doesn't need to be big. Three handprint lilies looks beautiful!

Don't they look pretty? And they are so easy to make! Who would have thought!?

These handprint lilies are so easy to make and they look so beautiful! Who would have thought that you could make paper flowers using handprints!? If you make them with white paper they make lovely Easter lilies. Or you can use coloured paper and make a bouquet of handprint lilies for Mother's Day. They're such an awesome Mother's day craft and a low mess Easter craft idea!

If you love making Easter Cards with kids or just on your own, you may just love today's Woven Egg & Chick Card Printable. Making Easter Card Making fun and easy (and of course pretty). This Egg & Chick Card Paper Weaving project is based on the Larger Chick Paper Weaving printable we shared for preschoolers earlier. I would say as there is a little more cutting involved and we use thinner paper strips, this is a great paper weaving project for KS1 and KS2. Though it is still simple, it is effective and easy to make! So head to the Egg & Chick Paper Weaving for Preschoolers if working with 2 and 3yrs olds, nursery or foundation years and stay here for our Egg & Chick Cards if working with older kids! We have LOTS more great Card Making Ideas for kids. As well as a fabulous Paper Easter Crafts section to explore!

This is part of our Easter Weaving series - lovely Easter Paper Weaving for kids! Love these Paper woven eggs for kids to make. And adore that you can pop them in an envelope and send to a deserving adult.

These free Easter Card Printables also make a great resource for Scouts, Brownies, Library Craft sessions or Church groups. Enjoy!

How to make Woven Egg & Chick Cards - Paper Weaving for Kids!

We do really love how easy these Chick cards are to make and how lovely the paper weaving looks! Perfect Easter Egg patterns!

Begin by printing out your free Easter Printable onto light card stock.

Colour in your chick in whatever colour you like! If you are using the watercolour pencils like we have.. let the chick dry fully before moving on.

Once it is all dry, fold the paper along the edge where the two eggs meet. If you make the fold as neat as possible (with the tops and bottoms of the page aligning, you can cut out both halves at the same time!

Use the "full egg" to cut out your card.

Open the card and cut out the "top half" of your egg & chick side.

Cut along the lines of your egg & chick card.

Then cut 1cm strips of coloured paper. I am not great at cutting super neat strips... and I think the results still look lovely. But needles to say, the neater these strips the better. If you making these a KS1 classroom project you may want to use a paper cutter in advance!

Start on the top left side of the egg. Add a little glue to your strip and glue it under the first strip. Then weav in and out. Securing it at the other end with a little more glue (you can trim later).

On the second row glue on TOP of the strip and weave.

Continue until you come to the bottom of the egg. I find it helps to glue down each part of the last strip to secure and "neaten" the final egg.

Done!!!

Тhis is a very easy and impressive card (we already gave it away to a beloved friend). You need an empty foam tray, a heart-shaped cookie cutter (to make your shapes more regular) and some tempera paints.

Cut out a square from the bottom of the foam tray. Press the cookie cutter into the square to leave an impression, then press along the indentation with something thicker (we used a pencil) to make the lines wider.

Make several prints in a row with tempera paints. Clean the styrofoam 'stencil' well after each color so the hues on the paper will remain clear. When the picture is dry, cut it out an glue it on colored cardboard paper.

Spring is finally here! Maybe it's been spring for awhile where you are, but I live in Canada, so it takes a little bit longer to warm up where I am. And my oh my, have I ever missed the flowers and the leaves! I love walking my 6 year old daughter to school each morning and seeing the magnolias just ready to bloom, the buds on the trees just ready to burst and the bright yellow forsythia flowers highlighting our backyard. I love this time of year!

And since I've been in such a wonderful spring mood, I decided to make some beautiful paper hycacinth flowers. These look a little tedious, but I promise, they're not that bad. By the time I had made two or three, it was only taking me about 5 minutes per flower. And they look so pretty, and so real, that it's definitely worth the effort!

My girls were so excited when they saw me making these paper flowers. They picked out a bright pink piece of card stock and begged me to make them each a flower (they're 4 and 6, so of course they wanted pink!). The paper swirling was a little bit beyond their abilities, but they were so proud of the flowers I made for them that they carried them around everywhere for about two days.

How to Make Paper Hyacinth Flowers

Here's what you'll need:

Assorted colours of cardstock (Not too thick. Mine was 65 lbs, but thinner paper will work too)

Green construction paper (It needs to be thin)

Scissors

Ruler

Pencil

Glue Stick

Knitting Needle (optional)

Cut out a strip of cardstock paper approximately 8.5″ x 2″. If your paper is only 8″ wide, a strip 8″ x 2″ wide will work too. I just made mine the length of my paper.

Mark 3/8″ from both edges of the paper and use a pencil to lightly draw a line across the paper.

Using scissors (I tried an exacto knife, and scissors are waaaaaay easier), carefully snip the paper into strips that are about 1/4″ wide, cutting up to the pencil line.

Continue cutting 1/4″ strips until you've made it across the entire strip of paper.

Try to keep your cuts as straight and parallel as possible, but don't panic if they aren't perfect. It won't really matter once you've swirled them up.

Using a knitting needle or wooden skewer, carefully roll each strip. Make sure the pencil line is on the BACK of the striplike in the photo below. You want to roll the strips away from the pencil line so it's not visible when you're done the flower.

Roll each strip as far as it will go.

And continue rolling until you've rolled each piece along the entire length of the paper.

Making the Stem:

Next, you'll need to make the stem. Make sure you're using construction paper or another type of thin paper or you won't be able to roll it. Or if you want to save time, just use green straws as the stems.

Cut out a strip 2″ x 8″.

Start rolling one of the corners diagonally. Once you've gotten it started, add some glue to the paper to help keep it together.

Keep rolling the green paper diagonally around itself to make a thin, stem-like tube.

When you're done, it will look something like this:

Adding the Flower to the Stem

Add some glue to the back of the swirled up paper.

Then place it over the thinner end of the stem with the swirls pointing up and towards the outside, like in the photo below.

Start wrapping the swirled up paper around the stem so that it overlaps itself as you go.

Try to get it as tight as you can around the stem until you reach the end of your swirled up paper strip. If you need to, add a bit of extra glue to the end to help keep it in place.

Making the Leaves

Next, you're going to need some leaves.

Cut out a piece of paper, about 2″ x 3″. Fold it accordion style along the long edge in roughly 1/4″ sections.

Using sharp scissors, cut out a leaf shape, leaving about 1/2″ at the bottom to give you room to glue it later.

Here's what my leaf shape looked like before I unfolded it:

And here's what it looked like after it was unfolded. You'll end up with 3 or 4 "leaves".

Next, add some glue to the bottom of the leaves, and place one corner about 2″ below the flower, at an angle like in the photo below:

Wrap it tightly around the stem as you press down the glue to keep it in place.

And there you have it! One paper hyacinth flower!

Repeat the process in different colours to make yourself a beautiful bouquet!

The first one takes a bit of time, but I promise, you only have to make one or two of them to become an expert!

By the time I was done my bouquet, it was only taking me about 5 minutes per flower. Which really isn't bad!

They are so fresh and I love the pop of colour it adds to my kitchen counter!

These are a little more work than the rolled paper flowers I made a couple years ago, but they are so beautiful! It's definitely worth the effort!

These paper hyacinth flowers are easy to put together and they make a gorgeous spring bouquet! They'd make beautiful decorations for a wedding or baby shower, or a beautiful centerpiece. This is a fun spring craft and a great way to add a splash of colour to your kitchen. I love how real these flowers look!

Ready to make another cool cubes craft? Valentine's Day is a special holiday we'll be celebrating soon and this time we have got a lovely Heart Box Paper Craft for you to make with your young ones.

With this printable Valentine's Day paper box template, your kids will create a nice craft with a hanging heart inside it that can be used as a cute gift, or a beautiful home decoration.

*this post contains affiliate links*

We enjoy making our box crafts, and with Valentine's Day slowly approaching, we are sure your kids (especially tweens) will have fun with them too.

The Saint Valentine's Day is well known for its red colored themes, hearts, kisses, and showing the affection to our loved ones. And for the occasion, we've prepared a craft which describes these words perfectly.

With this project, we'll be spreading the love with an adorable Valentine's box with a hanging heart inside of it.

Kids will have fun cutting and coloring the whole template with their own colors and gluing the box together after they're done.

This cute heart box papercraft is simple and easy to make.

Ready to make your Valentine's Day box? Let's start crafting!

How to Make Paper Heart Box

What you need:

our printable Valentine's Day Paper Heart Box template (you can find it at the end of this tutorial).

paper - we used heavier print paper (the regular will also work out fine)

coloring supplies

string and sticky tape

craft stick

scissors

glue

printer

Watch the Video Tutorial

Or Follow These Step by Step Instructions

Print out our Valentine's Day paper box template on a heavier or regular print paper (you can grab it at the end of this tutorial).

Use your best crayons and color the template - we used a red and a yellow marker this time.

Grab your scissor to cut out the frame of the template nicely.

You need to cut out the two blank squares on the template. These squares will be your "windows" of the box. To make cutting easier, you can fold the template in half and cut out the first blank square.

To cut out the second window, fold the template accordingly and cut out the second blank square out of the template.

Cut out the two hearts, flip them around and color them on the other side too. Make a nice incision along the dashed lines through the center of each heart.

You need to make crisp folds along the sides. Using a craft stick helps (or some other tool at hand).

Continue and fold all of the flaps of our box.

Continue With These Steps

Cut a short piece of string and make one knot at the end of it - you will need it to hang our heart inside of the box.

Insert the string (the part with a knot) into the incision of a heart that you've made 4 steps before.

Now insert the second heart (that has the opposite incision) into the one that has a string in it.

Apply the glue to the flaps of the box.

It's time to put the box together. We like to leave the side without the flaps for the end - this makes closing the cube much easier.

Before you close the box, you need to glue the string to the middle of our closing side (the side without the flaps). We used a sticky tape to do the job.

Apply some more glue to the flaps (if needed).

Now gently close the box.

You paper heart box is all done.

Már nincsen sok idő vasárnapig, ezért pár olyan számomra kedves ötletet gyűjtöttem össze, mely anyák napjáig könnyen kivitelezhető.

Szerintem az anyák imádják a kényeztetést, hiszen Ők annyit gondoskodnak a gyerekeikről, hogy ha néha fordítva történik, az igazán jóleső érzés lehet. Itt kicsit magamból indultam, mert imádok kencéket kotyvasztani, így én biztosan ezt választanám. Az első képen nem feltétlen magad kell elkészítsd a kencét, de a formás kis flakonokat igen. Szívesen elnézném ezt a szettet a fürdőszobámban!

Ha mégis magad készítenéd a beltartalmat, akkor a legegyszerűbb a testradírt elkészíteni (és sokkal jobban is működik, mint a bolti). Én gyakran készítem a citromos fajtát: kristálycukor+egy citrom leve+ kókuszolaj vagy szőlőmagolaj+ e-vitamin. Igazi luxuskényeztetés így tavasszal a bőrnek, és nem utolsó sorban feszesít.

Ha nincs időd vagy kedved kreatívkodni, de mégis ötletes ajándékot adnál, akkor még van időd a nyomdába elszaladni, és rányomtatni egy párnára szívalakban a testvéred és a saját neved.

Azt hiszem a szülők azok, akik sosem unják meg a fényképeket nézegetni. Lehet adni közös fotót, gyerekkori fotót, vagy családi albumot. Ez a mágneses fényképrakosgatással pedig egészen egyedien tudja összeállítani a kedvenc fotóit az édesanyánk.

A tanítványokkal már egész héten anyák napi lázban égtünk, és szebbnél szebb ajándékokat gyártottunk. Az egyik legszebb ez a muffin virágos megoldás lett.

A másik pedig a ceruzaháncsból faragott virágkép. Igazán egyszerű, magyarázni sem kell. A virágok közepére a hegyezéskor keletkezett ceruzaport szórtuk, a háttér satírozást ugyanezzel oldottuk meg.

Akinek pedig semmi ötlete vagy ideje sincs (és együtt él még az anyukájával), azoknak egy készítettem pár kupont, nyomtatható verzióban, melyek letölthetőek. Aztán vigyázat, a kuponok beváltásra kerülnek!:-)

Letölthető kuponok:

Remélem valamelyik ötlet kedvedre lesz! Boldog készülést!:-)
