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.

Paper House Making

Paper House Making
Today I am going to show you how to make paper house making for kids. This is also very easy and simple paper crafts for kids. Take square shaped white paper and fold it to make 16 small square shapes. Give numbering to both top and bottom border squares as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Make sure to have all the squares should be in equal size.

Now using color pen or pencil mark the joining line 1 and 2 squares and do the same for the remaining squares too. So that you will get 6 lines including top and bottom lines. Cut those lines and glue them to make triangle shaped roof of the house on both top and bottom sides. First glue to 1st sqaure and 3rd square and stick them. Next glue to 2nd square and 4th square stick them too. Do the same process with the other squares too.

Once you finish making roof you will get shape of house without doors and windows. So now mark the doors and windows on front side of the house. Mark T shape for doors and I shape for windows and cut them carefully. Make the windows on back side too in the same way as we did in front side. Using sketch pens paint the house neatly as you like and some decorations to give it a realistic house look.

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

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.

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.

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.
