Under the Sea – Tissue Paper Craft for Kids
School is nearly over and summer is headed our way! YAY! The hope is that the sun shines all summer long but there is the possibility that you might experience a rainy day or two. So, Whimsical Publishing has created this fun summery craft for those rainy afternoons. This crafts includes free printable PDFs and requires minimal supplies. 
Materials: Scissors, Paper, Coloured Pencils or Crayons, Glue Stick, Coloured Tissue Paper, and our Free Printable PDF Cut-Outs. (It’s also nice to have white card stock but it’s not necessary.)
Originally I planned to only make the above cut-out page for this craft but my kids got in on the action and they created two more (below). Thanks Hannah and Hunter! 🙂
You can download these free printable PDF pages at these links below >
First, colour your printed pages. 
Then cut out your coloured characters.
Next, randomly tear up tissue paper pieces and glue them onto a plain piece of paper. (I like to use white card stock because it is thicker and makes a nicer backing to glue the tissue on.)
Glue the tissue paper on until the piece of paper is completely covered. 
Lastly, take your coloured cut-outs, arrange and glue them onto your tissue paper ocean. 
Happy crafting and don’t forget to check out all of our other craft ideas as well!

Let’s Go Fly a Kite!
Hunter looked outside and remarked, “It’s really windy – I think it’s a good day to fly a kite!” I knew that we had some old broken kites somewhere in the garage but I wasn’t up for the search. Instead, we did a little online searching. The kids and I found some instructions which assured us that drinking straws, plastic grocery bags, string and tape would quickly produce fully functioning kites. Perfect – we set to work!
I’m sure you are not surprised to hear that once we got our homemade kites outside, they didn’t fly at all… 🙁 Hannah took this disappointment in stride but Hunter was pretty bummed. It’s always sad when your hard work doesn’t quite pay off…
Hannah didn’t give up though! She went into the garage, rummaged through and found one of our old kites. After a bit of sawing, taping and tying we managed to create a NEW-OLD kite that flew perfectly!
We all know that life is often more about the journey than the end result. My kids and I had a lot of fun constructing those kites together. And in the end, I also learned that making old things new again can sometimes be a better option than starting from scratch. 😉
Happy Sunday,
Micheline
