Week 26- Tissue Paper Hyacinth

Category: Spring/Easter

We reviewed our Easter Colors.

Project from Aunt Peaches.

What you will need:

-tissue paper (pink/purple/white/yellow)

-ruler

-scissors

-thin straws

-green masking tape

Time: 1 hour (not including prep time)

Prep:

• Cut tissue paper in 3"x18" strips

Activity:

• Fold in half long ways like a hot dog
• Snip strips (caution the kids to NOT go all the way through)
• Tape one end to the top of the straw
• Wrap 2-4 times around the tip before winding down the length of the straw
• Tape the end
• Wrap the remaining length of the straw with the green tape

 

Overall: easy and fairly quick! They look gorgeous and will be great additions to decorate our tables for Easter.
