Hop, little rabbit, hop! hop! hop! I have created 3 simple rabbit arts and crafts that you and your child can do at home. Not only you get to do these easy DIY arts, but also you get learn how to say 'rabbit' in Mandarin. So let's start!
Rabbit finger
Let's start with the rabbit finger puppet. Use a thicker paper ( compared to the copy paper that we commonly use at home) to print the layout. If you don't have velum paper, you can stick the layout on a used folder or cardboard. Then cut the layout using a pair of scissors.
Then, use a puncher to make holes and use scissors to cut and make the hole bigger.
Use any coloring and drawing materials to draw the rabbit's face. You can design or color your rabbit in any way that you like.
After you are done coloring and designing your rabbit, you can now play with by simply placing you fingers into the holes to make it your rabbit's feet, and hop all around!
2. Rabbit headdress
Start by cutting the rabbit's ears.
Use a used cardboard, velum paper or folder to measure the head circumference and make a mark for later use, then cut in into strips.
Use double sided tape or glue to stick both ends together. You can use the mark that you made awhile ago as your guide and stick both ends together.
Choose any colored paper that you want to use, and tear it into pieces.
Get the rabbit ears that was cut awhile ago, and put glue onto it. Then, stick those pieces of colored paper on the rabbit ear.
Put glue on the end part of the rabbit ear, and stick it on the inner side of the strip of paper that was used to measure your head. You can use tape to hold it in place and wait for it to dry.
Once the glue is dry, you can use any coloring and drawing materials to design your rabbit headdress. I simple drew the rabbit face, how about you?
3. Rabbit :)
Start by cutting the layout for this arts and crafts.
Roll the two strips of paper separately and use tape to hold both ends in place.
Cut the bunny ear and use double sided tape and stick it on top.
And stick the bunny feet too.
I use black marker to draw my rabbit's face. Use you imagination and design your own rabbit.
