Bubble Wrap Craft

Embark on a whimsical crafting journey with your kids as they create a unique and textured Tissue Paper Hot Air Balloon Craft. To initiate this creative adventure, start by painting bubble wrap and pressing it onto craft paper, resulting in a visually stimulating and textured pattern. This step introduces an element of experimentation and sensory exploration as kids engage with different materials.

Following the creation of the textured pattern, the crafting process takes an exciting turn as kids staple balloon shapes together. This not only enhances their fine motor skills but also introduces basic construction techniques. The addition of newspaper strips, inserted into the stapled balloons, adds a three dimensional effect, transforming their creations into lifelike representations of hot air balloons.

To complete the craft, encourage kids to attach a cut paper lunch sack as the balloon basket using halved paper straws. This step adds a finishing touch and introduces an element of design as they consider the placement and attachment of the basket. The use of halved paper straws provides structural support while maintaining the overall aesthetic appeal of the hot air balloon.

This multi step crafting process not only results in a visually captivating piece of art but also engages kids in a variety of skills, from painting and construction to fine motor coordination. The Tissue Paper Hot Air Balloon Craft becomes a testament to their creativity and craftsmanship, offering a delightful and educational crafting experience.
