This is such a cute, simpleflower craftfor kids using beads.
This craft is great for Toddler, Preschool, Kindergarten, and 1st-4th grade kids.
Plus you only need a couple things that many of us will have already in our craft bins!
For this fine motor activity you will needbeads,pipe cleaners, and one rubber band.
Have your child put the beads on 2 pipe cleaners any pattern they want.
HINT: Leave 1 blank on each side.
This will make one big circle of beads.
Now fold the pipe cleaner to make two rows.
Cut your rubber band in half and tie the middle of the pipe cleaner.
Now pull the remaining sides in and tie them to the center using the rubber band in the middle.
Double not the rubber band and cut off any extra.
Wrap the pipe cleaner around the enter and then down making one leaf along the way.
We held white paper behind the flower so you could see how pretty it turned out.
It really came out beautifully.
My toddler, preschooler and Kindergartner could do everythingexceptthe rubber band, making a flower part.
My 2nd grader made it easily and still found it to be a fun activity.
This would be a great mothers day craft for kids!
