A BIG happy Monday to you all! Today I’m sharing a kid craft that is not only PERFECT for the upcoming St. Patrick’s Day holiday BUT it’s also great to do in honor of spring. I call this kid friendly craft our Tissue Paper Rainbow and it in-cooperates easy supplies like glue, colorful tissue paper, cardstock and even a paper plate. It’s super simple, fun for all ages and really inexpensive too. Sides that, who can resist a craft that showcases their child’s little hands in it? No one – I tell ya!!!

So what are you waiting for? Grab those craft supplies and follow our step-by-step tutorial below to make your own one-of-a-kind rainbow! Happy crafting my friends!

Supplies:

* Large Paper Plate
* Blue/Yellow/Red Tissue Paper
* Glue
* Scissors
* Stapler
* White Cardstock
* Pencil

Directions:

* First cut your paper plate in half. Reserve one half for today’s craft and save the other for another day.
* Cut your tissue paper into small squares and separate them into piles by color.
* Starting on the outer ring of the paper plate, put a line of glue.
* Have children place one color of tissue paper on that line. Repeat for the next line, until the paper plate looks like a rainbow.
* Once done, set aside.
* While that piece is drying, trace your child’s hands on the white cardstock. Trim out with scissors.
* To finish off the rainbow craft, simple staple on the handprint “clouds” to the paper plate. Then display proudly!
