Welcome to Washcloth Crafts!
One thing nice about TerryGami is that there is something for every season.
Right now you are probably thinking about what would be special to do for
the kids for their end of the year school party at school or something special
to do to wind up the end of the home-school year. The Graduation Owl can
either be made for classmates or, in a home-school situation, the children
themselves can make the owls. If they are made in a classroom setting,
just prepare all of the materials a head of time, so the children can
assemble them easily. Try using googly eyes for a fun change. I used
these eyes on the original owls when I made them for my children's
kindergarten classes. Add a treat or some cash to the tummy. The owl
can serve to deliver cash to a child of any age!
Over the summer months, there are all kinds of creatures to make in
the second book which has animals, pirate parrots, and gnomes.
For 4th of July parties, there are two types of favors to make, either party
poppers or firecrackers. Anything really can be made in red, white, and blue.
For example, the heart boxes can be made with white washcloths, and then
use red and blue foam board or gem stars for decoration. The heart box and
firecracker instructions can be purchased separately on Etsy. See the link
above.
For summer, the kids can make their own zoo. In the animal book, they will find
instructions for monkeys, tortoises, hares, bears and parrots. Build circus cages
with cardboard boxes for the animals. Let the kids make the animals in all different
colors. Turn the gnome into a clown by putting a head of red yarn for the hair and
a ruffle around the neck for the collar.
