Trick or Treat !

Hi, there! Halloween is just around the corner. Ready for Trick or Treat? ^_^

Here are the templates for this pumpkin candy bag.

These are the bag's parts:

Glue the top flap of part C, and make a hole with paper puncher.

Put the bag's parts together.

Smudge soft pastel around the circle so the pumpkin won't look too plain.

Glue 2 circles together.

Paste the 3rd circle with foam tape to give it a nice depth.

Paste the eyes and the mouth, then paste the pumpkin to the candy bag.

Who doesn't like fishing?

Hi, all!

Another kids' favorite is fishing game. When my kid was in kindergarten, he had to prepare a show and tell about magnet. I made him this simple game to show the class how magnet works. It was a blast for the class, they couldn't wait for their turn to play fishing!

And how to make this cute fish? Easy!

1. Print the template.

2. Use it to trim colorful cardboard : 1 pc for the fish, and 2 pcs for the body.

3. I use a circle shaped paper punch to make the fish scales.

4. Glue the scales, overlapping each other. 

5. Trim the scales to form the body shape. 

6. Repeat these step one more time, and glue the bodies to both side of the fish. 

7. Draw the eyes and put a paperclip for the mouth.

A toy fishing rod usually have a magnet at the end of the fishing line. If you have one, you can use it for this game. If not, you can make the rod using a magnet (I used a round magnet), tied it to a yarn (I used a circle sticker to make the yarn stick to the magnet), and tied the yarn to a chopstick or straw for the handle.

If you don't have time for the preparation, contact me for a DIY package.

Happy crafting, and enjoy the game!

Busy Little Bee

So here we go, my first post. This week is a toddler week ^_^ Let's create something easy and fun with your toddler. Kids seem crazy about anything on stick. From food (my kids love Old Chang Kee's fish balls so much) to craft!

This bee on stick is really every kids favorite when I had a craft exhibition a while ago.

This is what you need:
1. Template
2. Yellow and black cardstock or color pencils
3. Straw
4. Scissors
5. Glue
6. Tape

Print this template:

You can color the bee body, or cut yellow and black cardstock and glue them.

For you who's too busy to do the preparation, but looking forward to spend some quality time doing this craft with your toddler, you can order my DIY craft package here on the comment section, or via FB: teachinglittlefingers@gmail.com.
