DIY Snowflake for toddler

I know it's really late to post crafts with Christmas theme, but late is better than nothing. December is identical with snowy winter season, so snowflake is the DIY craft for toddlers this time.

What you need:

• Plain white paper
• Origami
• Puncher
• Scissor
• Glue

Instructions:

1. Draw circles on the paper and cut them out
2. Fold the circles into 4 and cut on the edges, adults may help with this
3. Punch colorful origami papers
4. Decorate the snowflakes with the punched papers

SUN-shine

After everyone was down couple of days ago, now mommy was down too with fever! But I can't wait to make this sun activity for Jenn. 

What you need:
Cardboard (thick!)
DIY Edible Paint
Origami Paper
Scissor
Scotch Tape
Marker pen

Firstly, I let her paint on a thick cardboard with DIY edible paint. She may use her finger, cotton buds or anything that she wants. Then you have to wait until it gets dry. 

You may cut some origami papers while waiting for the painting. I used red, orange and yellow colors to stick on the sun.

Once the painting dries, cut a big circle and you may start sticking on origami papers on the circle's edges with scotch tape. I added smiley face to make it cute!

Jenn didn't finish her job, mommy have to do most of it. We may give it another try next time! 

Sorting Shapes

Jenn learned about shapes and she knows them quite well, you may wanna check out the activity about Introductions to shapes over here. It's time for sorting shapes!

What you need:

• Origami paper
• Glue
• Marker
• Paper

Prepare the activity by cutting some shapes on the origami paper, we had circle, triangle, square and rectangle. Then draw the shapes as the header on a piece of paper. This activity simple require them to sort the shapes and stick on the origami paper under each group.

The result is quite messy, maybe we should use different paper for different shape. Have fun! =)

Counting Tree

Jenn is learning to count, she still can't count properly. Sometimes she start counting from two, and sometimes she just say one to ten without really counting the things i asked. So this time, let's make counting more fun!

What I used:

• Scissor
• Glue
• Origami paper
• Old calendar (I love to upcycle stuff at home!) - Cut it into tree shape and tree trunks, cover up with origami papers.
• Colorful stickers - Write numbers on each color as the task to stick as many stickers as written on it.

Happy sticking, happy counting and have a great day!
