Hi there! We’ve been celebrating Chinese New Year (or Lunar New Year) at school since Febrary 10th. This year is the Year of the snake. Last week we made awesome bouncy Spiral snakes (Check out this free printable project) This week we made some paper lanterns. They are super easy and fun to make, and the kids LOVED them!

Materials
     ☽ construction paper
     ☽ coloring pencils
     ☽ glue or tape
     ☽ scissors
     ☽ ruler
     ☽ yarn

Simply follow these easy instructions!
Draw whichever design you like!
 
Good cutting/fine motor skills exercise!
We added yarn for our handles!

We even learned an awesome Chinese New Year song… Gung Hay Fat Choy

Wishing you all good fortune and happiness!
Lunar New Year

Hi there! Here’s a little Spring we made in class the other day. The windows looked so lovely with these suncatchers! All you need is cardstock, contact paper and tissue paper. I used my Cricut and this file to make them! Happy crafting!
