Here is an easy spring craft! TULIP FLOWER made with your child’s hand print, paper, pipe cleaners. It’s so simple!

In a few days our school has a Spring Party where we like to have several stations for the youngsters to work on. Each year we need a craft table with a an easy project. To make it easy for the children to do and take with the project home immediately we avoid things that have white craft glue or paint. I’m happy to say I have found an idea that will be Spring themed, with just a few supplies and no drying time. Whoohoo!

This is what you will need:

  • Colored paper (red, yellow, pink, orange, purple)
  • Green and yellow (or orange) pipe cleaners
  • Pencil, tape, scissors

Trace the child’s hand on colored construction paper. Cut the hand shape out.

 

Use a round pencil to form a curl each finger outwards. Wrap the bottom of the hand around itself so you have a tiny hole at the bottom. Add a piece of clear tape to hold it in place.

 

Pipe cleaners usually come 12 inches long (30 cms), so cut the pipe cleaners in half.

Bend the end of the 6 inch (15 cms) green pipe cleaner so you have a hook shape. Bend your orange or yellow 6 inch pipe cleaner in half to make a V shape. Twist the orange pieces together, then bend in half and twist again. Then twist 4 or 5 more times so the orange piece is tight. Next we need to twist the green hook end to secure it.

Slide the pipe cleaner stem in through the gap at the bottom of the flower so the green part is below the flower and the orange part is sticking up through the centre of the flower.

Add a ribbon if you make a few for a bouquet of flowers. That is all there is to it.
