If you need to keep your child busy, colored paper is the perfect creative tool. It is inexpensive, there is a lot of it, and you don't have to worry that the baby will get hurt or hurt himself. And if you don't know where to start, then here are 10 DIY colored paper craft ideas for kids!
1. Big-eyed penguin
You will need white, black and orange or yellow colored paper, toy eyes and scissors. The body of the penguin is oval, the breast and legs with a beak are in the form of hearts. Very nice!
2. Colorful rooster
The rooster's body is plain colored paper, rolled into a cone. You need to glue wings and jewelry, eyes, beak and scallop to it. And the paws are made of a thin long paper tape folded in a small accordion.
3. Bird made of feathers
This is a very beautiful and creative craft for older children. First you need to cut out individual feathers from colored paper, and then glue them to the base in the form of a bird's body.
4. Ladybug
These ladybugs are especially good for appliqués and homemade postcards. They only need two identical colored circles for the wings and two black circles for the body and head.
5. Volumetric paper flower
To make a beautiful flower, cut a paper circle into sectors and wrap the edges beautifully. It will be even better if you fold several of these blanks of different sizes and make a stem from a tube.
6. Rainbow Bridge
Cut two clouds out of white paper, and cut the multi-colored one into identical strips. Lay out the stripes with a rainbow and secure the edges on both sides to the clouds - the rainbow bridge is ready!
7. Funny jellyfish
Cut off a portion of the circle to make a jellyfish dome. And cut the paper rectangle with a fringe and twist the edges with a toothpick. If you only partially glue the base and twist it into a cylinder, you get a stand.
8. Flexible paper track
For such a funny craft for the little ones, you need to fold a sheet of paper and cut it from the fold, not reaching the edge. Then - twist the body into a cylinder and glue the head with antennae.
9. Spiral rose
To make such a beautiful bouquet, cut several colored circles of different sizes. Cut each of them in a spiral to the very center and twist into a bud.
10. Textured butterfly
Unfold the paper square with an angle down and fold with an accordion to the center on both sides. Likewise, make the bottom wings and pull both pieces in the center with wire or thread.
