Months Of The Year Chart

It has been a very long time from my previous post. Using paper we can make so many things with little creativity. Kids will always love to do fun things with paper. Coming to paper crafts we can use many kinds of paper like news paper, colour paper, crepe paper and etc. Why kids like paper crafts means these are very easy and simple to make. Today I have made months of the year chart for school project.

Things required

Construction Paper

Colour Paper

Scissor

Glue Stick

Funny Stickers

Glitter Glue

Firstly I took construction paper black in colour for the base. Then I cut colour paper and cut it into slits. I selected multi-colours and made slits. Wrote months names and applied glitter glue on the names. Put it dry for one full day because glitter glue will take more time to dry completely. Now paste all the slits on black colour construction paper. Stick some funny stickers on it to give nice look. Here is the chart ready.

Month Chart Paper Craft for Kids

If you make these kind of paper crafts for kids they will like it and learn the things faster than boring lessons. Kids always enjoy making fun activities to learn new things. I have made many crafts for kids like paper house making, traffic signal, greeting card making and scrap book making etc. These are all simple and easy items to learn and also kids will enjoy by making them. I hope you like these crafts and share your suggestions.

Paper Crafts for Kids

Kids will learn things by seeing and doing and they do remember the things which were learned through making. For that reason, all the schools were bringing changes in their teaching methods. From the initial stage of kids schooling, majority of the schools have come up with lots of crafts and fun activities like paper crafts, drawing etc. 

Today I am going to make paper craft for kids. By making traffic signal with paper, we can teach and make them to remember kids about the importance of it.

Traffic Signal Making
with paper 

Required things: 

Black Construction Paper

Color Papers

Glue

Scissors

First we have to take the black construction paper and cut it into two rectangular shapes. One piece with length 30cm and width 15cm, the other piece with length 45cm and width 5cm. The first piece will be used as box of the lights and the other one as pole. 

Next take the color papers of red, yellow and green. Draw one circle on each color paper with equal size and cut them neatly. Now glue the three circles on first rectangular construction paper piece with order red, yellow and green. After that glue the other rectangular construction paper at the end of the first one. Finished making traffic signal with paper.

Basic Scrap Book Making for Kids

Scrap book making is very interesting and fun thing for kids. They always wanted to do it. I have made scrap book on animals for kids as a school project. So here is a procedure how to make simple and basic scrap book

for kids.

Things we need:

Scissors

Colour Paper

Glitter Glue

Gum

Stones

Stapler

Pins

Stars

Coming to the procedure initially I took the three color papers and cut them into square shape. The remaining paper I used for making paper flower to decorate it. Take the photos of three animals which you like and cut them according to your requirement.  Now paste them on color paper.

The remaining color paper strips were drawn circle shape in different sizes and cut them.  Fold the circle into half as semicircle then fold again into half repeat once more.  Now you will get cone shape. On the curve side cut small trial shape piece and open it. Then it will be look like a star. So do the same process with other circles too. You can also directly draw and cut the flower petal shape if you are familiar with drawings. 

For kids the above method of making paper flowers will be easy to do. Make as many flowers as you want. Three sizes flowers will be pasted one on other with glue. Make sure to paste them according to the sizes in decreasing order. In the middle glue and paste any button or stone for shining.

Stick this paper flower on one corner and write some information or caption about the picture. Edges of the photo were outlined with glitter glue and let it dry completely. Finally stick stars here and there for better look. I have made three pages for my scrap book with three different animal photos and stapled those three pages as one.

Greeting Card Making

Today I have come up with greeting card making. Here we can see how to make a simple and easy greeting card. Below are the required things we need.

Greeting Card

Thick Paper

Fevistick

Satin ribbon

Kundans & Stones

So here I am using A4 sheet. First fold the A4 sheet equally and make it two parts. We just need one part. If you want to make bigger size then you can use the full sheet. Take one part of the sheet and foldit again to middle and make sure the edges are equally placed. If you want you can also use colour paper. Take satin ribbon and paste it with glue or fevistick on all four sides of the card. Next I used butterfly shape plates on four corners.

In the middle, I have used flower shape kundans and some green colour kundans for stem. Add glue on the card where you want to paste them as a design and paste them. Below that if you have space write anything you want. Now the front part has finished.

Open the card and draw some border designs or paste any kind of kundans or stones you want. In the middle, you can also write quotation or saying for your beloved one. Finally the greeting card is ready.

Recycled News Paper Bag

In this post I am going to show you how to recycle a news paper into a bag.

Recycled News Paper Bag

Required things:

• News Paper
• Fevistick or gum
• Rope for  handle
• Satin Ribbon
• Colour Paper

Coming to the pocess, first take the spreaded news paper  which is in rectangular size.  Next fold the opened edges of top side and glue it . So that it will not open again. Now take two card board pieces in equal size and place them on the paper. There should be some gap between two pieces.

It’s better to paste the card board pieces on the paper. Then you fold the edge once again and glue it. Now fold the paper vertically. Glue the gum once again to close the left  side of the bag. Now  we need to fold both right and left side of the edges. Turn the other side and fold the same as previous on other side too. While folding right and left  sides make sure to fold them inside.  Half of the bag finished.

Coming to the bottom, first close left and right sides and glue them properly. Now close top and bottom sides as the same way. Press it from inside. Now make two holes to the card board on both ends and tie with rope. Now recycled news paper bag is ready. If you want you may decorate it as you like.

Here I wrapped it with colour paper and satin ribbon. In the image you can see that. If you want more information, you can also watch this video. I was inspired by this video too.
